We recently had some reflection with Alex that this is redundant with
the width and height in the OUTPUT format. It may also apply to some
other fields in these structs. I feel like they should be removed and
passed via corresponding generic V4L2 properties - format, selection,
etc.

The same problem is also present in the MPEG2 controls. In fact, there
was a patch already which used some fields from the controls to
calculate the destination buffer strides, rather than bytesperline in
the format.

Since we're in staging, it could be done with a follow-up patch, though.

Best regards,
Tomasz
