Nicolas, are you planning on incorporating your patch into future 1.10.x
releases?

I've pointed the driver developers to the issue - here's the response that I've
got. (Believe the current behavior is around to stay.)

"It's not a bug. The GPU has a restriction that the height must be a multiple
of 16. Your height of 200 is not. The buffer size has to reflect the padded
height of a frame to 640x208, otherwise you'll corrupt the memory after your
image. 640*208 = 133120 which is the result you have seen.
I've not seen a mechanism within V4L2 to allow a driver to specify vertical
padding requirements except by requesting a bigger buffer than is required.
This doesn't work on formats such as V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV420 where you want to
specify padding between the planes, so the GPU has to do some further munging
of the data on those formats."
