<entry>Offset in bytes to video data in the plane.
Drivers must set this field when <structfield>type</structfield>
refers to an input stream, applications when it refers to an output stream.
Note that data_offset is included in <structfield>bytesused</structfield>.
So the size of the image in the plane is
<structfield>bytesused</structfield>-<structfield>data_offset</structfield> at
offset <structfield>data_offset</structfield> from the start of the plane.
