That's interesting, and possibly unrelated to the patch series that added 
metadata capture support. Would you be able to revert that patch series and 
see if the problem still occurs ? The four commits to be reverted are

088ead25524583e2200aa99111bea2f66a86545a
3bc85817d7982ed53fbc9b150b0205beff68ca5c
94c53e26dc74744cc4f9a8ddc593b7aef96ba764
31a96f4c872e8fb953c853630f69d5de6ec961c9

And if you could bisect the issue it would be even better :-)

Could you also send me the output of lsusb -v for your camera (you can 
restrict it to the camera with -d VID:PID), running as root if possible ?
