Like for example the entire gstreamer layer ? Also note V4L1 is obsolete for 2.6.x, so I'd hope that by 2.8 any driver still V4L1 has gone away or been updated. I'd suggest you go fix your specific problematic user application instead of breaking the kernel. The kernel people get thousands of requests to mend application programs in kernel space. It's very very rarely the right solution The implementation looks ok although I don't see any low latency considerations or is the camera sufficiently limited in quality you don't need to check for yielding ?
