    Nicolas, for me this looks like a problem in v4l2. In the case of vivid
    the stats overlay (where the coherency issues are observed, and most
    probably the issue will be observed on the whole image but fortunately
    it is a static image pattern) are filled by the CPU but I cannot see
    where the cache is flushed. Also I'm wondering why .finish method is
    missing for dma-vmalloc mem_ops.

    To be sure that the problem is in vmalloc v4l2 allocator, could you
    change the allocator to dma-contig, there is a module param for that
    called 'allocators'.
