I think the control framework shouldn't call .s_ctrl() for read-only
controls. If it's read-only the __v4l2_ctrl_modify_range() is supposed
to originate from the same driver, so any specific driver-side handling
can be handled before or after calling __v4l2_ctrl_modify_range().

A better helper function to update the value of a read-only control may
be a good idea. I may also have bypassed __v4l2_ctrl_modify_range()
completely and set the value manually in the corresponding v4l2_ctrl
instance, but I understand that this would be called a hack. I know we
would lose support for control events in that case, but for
V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE I don't think this is a problem. Control events are
actually annoying to use synchronously, if you want to know what other
controls have been impacted by a VIDIOC_S_CTRL call, userspace code to
handle this through control events would be a bit cumbersome.
