Per my comment here: https://github.com/intel/ipu6-drivers/issues/187#issuecomment-2087967087
https://github.com/stefanpartheym/archlinux-ipu6-webcam/pull/80 + https://github.com/stefanpartheym/archlinux-ipu6-webcam/issues/71 + https://github.com/lukemarsden/ipu6-drivers/commit/473f5226586154cd4abf8553b7939551c34c56bd
