Hi Umang,

Thank you for the patch.

As explained in the review of 1/2, I don't think we can reuse the EXIF
generator. Sorry :-(

Actually this should use the vendor and model of the end-product. We
will need to load this from a platform config/data file. It can stay
as-is for now.

This can be simplified to

		cameraStream->exif.setTimestamp(std::time(nullptr));

I don't think you need to include exif.h here.

The variable should be named exitData, or just exif.

The EXIF specification requires dates to be in the "YYYY:MM:DD HH:MM:SS"
format. str can be shortened to 20.

This can't happen if str is large enough, so I'd skip this check.

Extra blank line.

I don't think the Chrome OS HAL is relevant :-) What's relevant is
turning the libcamera orientation into an EXIF orientation.
