This message is most likely just a result of the VDOA not supporting the
selected capture format. In vdoa_context_configure, you can see that the
VDOA only writes YUYV or NV12.

That is -ENOMEM. Is CMA enabled and sufficiently large? For example,

CONFIG_CMA=y
CONFIG_CMA_DEBUGFS=y
CONFIG_DMA_CMA=y
CONFIG_CMA_SIZE_MBYTES=256
CONFIG_CMA_SIZE_SEL_MBYTES=y

I think it is not related to VDOA at all. Yes, by default the VDOA
should be activated automatically for any supported format.
