tbh I don't know much more details about why. I debugged this quite a
while and yes, from what I saw I need all these bits set.

rx fifo overflow should be taken care of by the underrun buffer, but
since imx8mq has an erratum that hangs the system in such case, see
below, can it in any way be one reason for this to be needed?

intuitively I'd say it's unrelated though.

I'm looking at
https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx/tree/drivers/media/platform/mxc/capture/mx6s_capture.c?h=imx_5.4.70_2.3.0
for the comparison that is not explicitly targeting imx8mm, right?

Anyway it looks like we need these bits on imx8mq only. Sorry, but
maybe somebody from NXP could tell us more about the reasons?

thanks a lot for reviewing, I'll queue a v2.
