v4l2src from the video4linux2 is a nice example. It resides in gst-plugins-good/sys/v4l2.
But I don't see why you would need this to optimize buffer copying. Unless you do something like videocrop, there shouldn't be any buffer copying, except at the source and sink. And there you already have some elements that use kernel buffers directly (e.g. v4l2src and v4l2sink :-)
