They - subdevice drivers of such IFM O2D cameras - should take care to avoid 
any I2C commands during a running read-out. Neither the bridge driver nor 
the framework core can or should know these details. This is just a generic 
call to a subdevice's .s_stream() method. What the driver does in it is 
totally its own business. Nobody says, that you have to issue I2C commands 
in it.
