I believe it's better to leave P-frames on by default. All-I-frames
stream has huge bitrate. And the pixels artifacts is not very strong,
it's 0 - 10 bad pixels on picture at same time in our dev environment,
and probably up to 50 bad pixels max in other environments I know of.

Thanks, moved to tasklet subroutine tw5864_handle_frame().

I didn't seem to me like dma_sync_single_for_* can take long time or be
otherwise bad to be done from interrupt context.

No, removing this line causes v4l2-compliance failures and also ffmpeg fails to
play the device.

Required ioctls:
                fail: v4l2-compliance.cpp(550): dcaps & ~caps
        test VIDIOC_QUERYCAP: FAIL

Allow for multiple opens:
        test second video open: OK
                fail: v4l2-compliance.cpp(550): dcaps & ~caps
        test VIDIOC_QUERYCAP: FAIL
