Yes, the observant reader will see that out_width/height (the encoder
input resolution) is not changed in set_selection method, and that is
simply because currently the implementation for crop is missing. And it
is missing because the so-called extradata is not implemented and not
used in the driver, yet.

In fact the proposed patch will just fake the userspace application to
think that it sets the crop rectangle but the cropping will not happen
at all.

Not sure we need that.

This is the right property to be used to set encoder crop on the input,
but unfortunately it is not that simple.

Actually this property is used to enable the crop extradata handling in
the firmware side, but we need to take care of that extradata population
in the v4l2 driver. For that purpose we need an extradata buffer which
should be filled with extradata header plus the extradata itself.

I'm not sure how to implement that, still. There is a bunch of extradata
types where some of them could be filled by the driver but the others
could be filled by userspace.

For reference you can see how the crop is set on Android [1].
