I'm not entirely sure I like this. Typically losing lock means that this event
is triggered with the V4L2_EVENT_SRC_CH_RESOLUTION flag set, and userspace has
to check the new timings etc., which will fail if there is no lock anymore.

This information is also available through ENUMINPUT.

I would need to know more about why you think this is needed, because I don't
see what this adds.
