[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 2/2] lavc/pthread_frame: avoid leaving stale hwaccel state in worker threads

[Anton Khirnov]

This state is not refcounted, so make sure it always has a well-defined
owner.

Remove the block added in 091341f2ab5bd35ca1a2aae90503adc74f8d3523, as
this commit also solves that issue in a more general way.
