Hi Steve,

I've just been trying to get gstreamer to capture and h264 encode
video from my camera at various frame rates, and what I've discovered
does not look good.

1) when setting frame rates, media-ctl _always_ calls
   VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FRAME_INTERVAL with pad=0.

2) media-ctl never retrieves the frame interval information, so there's
   no way to read it back with standard tools, and no indication that
   this is going on...

3) gstreamer v4l2src is getting upset, because it can't enumerate the
   frame sizes (VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMESIZES fails), which causes it to
   fallback to using the "tvnorms" to decide about frame rates.  This
   makes it impossible to use frame rates higher than 30000/1001, and
   causes the pipeline validation to fail.

   This triggers the "/* Since we can't get framerate directly, try to
   use the current norm */" code in v4l2object.c, which causes it to
   select one of the 30000/1001 norms:

   despite the media pipeline actually being configured for 60fps.

   Forcing it by adjusting the pipeline only results in gstreamer
   failing, because it believes that v4l2 is unable to operate at
   60fps.

   Also note the complaints from v4l2src about the non-compliance...
