I tried to test this with a pending branch of GStreamer supporting
dynamic resolution changes. The even driver mechanism does not seem to
work with this driver. I've grepped the code, and don't see any places
were the event would be emitted.

Then I grepped, and it seems the driver accept source_change
subscription but does not set V4L2_FMT_FLAG_DYN_RESOLUTION. I believe
these two things are bit redundant and confusing, I'll fix the proposed
patch never the less, and see if that makes it work.
