Well, from a drivers point of view it makes _some_ sense.  The driver
can free any resources required to capture the frame at this point (but
not the image data itself of course).  bttv for example needs some
memory for the bt848 risc controller instructions.  Same goes for
unlocking I/O-locked pages.  Neverless it is confusing ...
