This seems (at least to me) to go against the spirit of the subdev
negotiation. Here, you seem to bypass the negotiation performed
between the CSI and the attached device, wanting to grab the
format from the CSI2 sensor directly. That bypasses negotiation
performed at the CSI2 subdev and video muxes.

The same goes for the frame rate monitoring code - imho, the frame
rate should be something that results from negotiation with the
neighbouring element, not by poking at some entity that is several
entities away.
