I have tested the latest upstream kernel. The problem still persists in
most applications (cheese, vlc, qv4l2, skype), but is fixed in xawtv.
Cheese outputs the following new warnings in the terminal:

nvfx_screen_get_param:95 -  Warning: unknown PIPE_CAP 30
nvfx_screen_get_param:95 -  Warning: unknown PIPE_CAP 30
nvfx_screen_get_param:95 -  Warning: unknown PIPE_CAP 55

xawtv, while capturing the video correctly(!), also outputs such warnings:

VLC's errors change as well:
