I think I do know why, according to Documentation/video4linux/sn9c102.txt the 
place in the header for the measured avarage luminance is different for the 
sn9c103, instead of byte 8 and 9 it is byte 9 and 10, so if you change the 
following in sd_pkt_scan():
                               if (i < (len - 10)) {
                                        atomic_set(&sd->avg_lum, data[i + 8] +
                                                        (data[i + 9] << 8));
into:
                               if (sd->fr_h_sz == 12 && i < (len - 10)) {
                                       atomic_set(&sd->avg_lum, data[i + 8] +
                                                       (data[i + 9] << 8));
                               } else if (sd->fr_h_sz == 18 && i < (len - 11)) {
                                       atomic_set(&sd->avg_lum, data[i + 9] +
                                                       (data[i + 10] << 8));

You should get better results. Also I believe, reading the datasheets of the 
ov6645 (closed datasheet I can find to the ov6650) ans that of the ov7630, that 
reg10max for the ov7630 should be 41.
