[PATCH v5 15/39] [media] v4l2: add a frame interval error event

From: Steve Longerbeam
Date: Thu Mar 09 2017 - 23:54:46 EST


Add a new FRAME_INTERVAL_ERROR event to signal that a video capture or
output device has measured an interval between the reception or transmit
completion of two consecutive frames of video that is outside the nominal
frame interval by some tolerance value.
