Arrgh! I know what this is. /dev/video6 corresponds to the Metadata output
device of vivid, and that metadata format sets brightness, contrast,
saturation and hue:

struct vivid_meta_out_buf {
        u16     brightness;
        u16     contrast;
        u16     saturation;
        s16     hue;
};

vivid_meta_out_process() calls tpg_s_* functions to set these values. But
this is wrong, it should set the corresponding V4L2 controls instead since
calling these tpg_s_* functions bypasses all range checks. It also will
not update the controls themselves, so they are out-of-sync with the actual
values. I.e. the test pattern generator uses different values compared to
the values in the controls.

So two patches are needed:

1) a patch for include/media/tpg/v4l2-tpg.h where tpg_s_hue will clamp the
hue value to the valid range. This to prevent anyone else from setting invalid
hue values in the tpg.

2) a patch for drivers/media/test-drivers/vivid/vivid-meta-out.c where,
instead of calling the tpg_s_* functions in vivid_meta_out_process(), it
calls instead:

        v4l2_ctrl_s_ctrl(dev->brightness, meta->brightness);
        v4l2_ctrl_s_ctrl(dev->contrast, meta->contrast);
	etc.

Do patch 2 first and test with syzkaller to check that by going through the
controls this issue is resolved. Since with that approach the tpg should
always get valid hue values.
