We have a customer who reported the same issue recently, has there been any development? I don't see anything in either uvc nor v4l2 that would address the race since this mail half a year ago (well, I could have missed it ;)) If nothing happened I'll probably backport this series as well, at which point it might make more sense to take it in until a better fix gets here then revert it...
