Please be a bit more specific about how this manifest itself to the
user. I see error message when stopping a stream (e.g. stopping qcam)
and the stream cannot be restarted (e.g. qcam fails with -EBUSY).

Please include the error messages that users see so that people can find

Looks like you're missing a CC stable tag here?
