I think for decoders (OUTPUT queue) and encoders (CAPTURE queue) we
allowed userspace to set sizeimage for buffers. See [1] Initialization
paragraph point 2:

    ``sizeimage``
       desired size of ``CAPTURE`` buffers; the encoder may adjust it to
       match hardware requirements

Similar patch we be needed for decoder as well.
