Logitech C922 internal SOF does not increases at a stable rate of 1kHz.
This causes that the device_sof and the host_sof run at different rates,
breaking the clock domain conversion algorithm. Eg:

Instead of disabling completely the hardware timestamping for such
hardware we take the assumption that the packet handling jitter is
under 2ms and use the host_sof as dev_sof.

We can think of the UVC hardware clock as a system with a coarse clock
(the SOF) and a fine clock (the PTS). The coarse clock can be replaced
with a clock on the same frequency, if the jitter of such clock is
smaller than its sampling rate. That way we can save some of the
precision of the fine clock.

To probe this point we have run three experiments on the Logitech C922.
On that experiment we run the camera at 33fps and we analyse the
difference in msec between a frame and its predecessor. If we display
the histogram of that value, a thinner histogram will mean a better
meassurement. The results for:
- original hw timestamp: https://ibb.co/D1HJJ4x
- pure software timestamp: https://ibb.co/QC9MgVK
- modified hw timestamp: https://ibb.co/8s9dBdk

This bug in the camera firmware has been confirmed by the vendor.
