#4407: Blackmagic/video signal to v4l2 loopback device has hickups

Summary of the bug:
I try to use a v4l2 loopback device for playback my Blackmagic Decklink
card but the video stalls multiple times per second.
When I playback a video to the device {{{ffmpeg -re -i
bbb_sunflower_1080p_30fps_normal.mp4 -f v4l2 /dev/video0}}} it looks fine.
Also when I record my bmd device to a video file {{{ffmpeg -f decklink -i
DeckLink\ SDI\ \(1\)@8 output.mkv}}} I get a great result. But the
combination BMD->V4l2loopback seems lagging.
I tried to play with -rtbufsize, -vsync, bmdtools and piping through the
matroska container but none seem the solution.
How to reproduce:
{{{

The dub frames seems stable after initialization, the load of the computer
is 0.3 and the memory is 90% free.
When I playback my /dev/video0 with mpv `mpv tv://` I get the following
errors (the seems sync with the frame freeze):
Non-monotonic video pts: 0.000000 <= 0.00000
--no-correct-pts with mpv omits the errors but not solve the problem.
Hopefully someone has some ideas.
