Could you try to verify the actual format configured on the sensor?
(media-ctl --get-v4l2 "'ov5640 2-0010':0").

Depending on the driver version you are running, you might be affected
by different regressions.

I suggest you to update the driver version to the last one available
in the media-tree master, or at least try to backport the following
commit:
fb98e29 media: ov5640: fix mode change regression

If it turns out the format and mode configured on the sensor do not
match the one you want.

Thanks
