[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v2 2/2] pipeline: raspberrypi: Add a Unicam dequeue timeout

[Naushir Patuck]

Enable the V4L2VideoDevice dequeue timeout for the Unicam Image node, and
connect the timeout signal to a slot in the pipeline handler. This slot will
log a fatal error message informing the user of a possible hardware stall.

The timeout is calculated as 2x the maximum frame length possible for a given
mode, returned by the IPA.
