Verify that streaming is not active before setting the pad format. According to the VIDIOC documentation [1] changes to the active format of a media pad via the VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT ioctl are applied to the underlying hardware. In rcar-csi2 a format change only applies to hardware, when the pipeline is started. While the device is not in use, it is therefore okay to update the format. However, when the pipeline is active, this leads to a format mismatch between driver and device. Other applications can query the format with VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT at any time and would be reported a format that does not fit the current stream. This commit prevents format update while streaming is active and returns -EBUSY to user space, as suggested by [1].
