For vlc 2.2 there is [1] and also [2] and [3] (maybe there are more). Applying the patch from [1] to vlc 2.1.5 works fine and makes vlc build against libav 11. The libav using code emits some warnings about deprecated functions, so I'm not sure if we need [2] and [3] and similar patches. I'll leave that to someone with more knowledge about libav and the vlc code base.
