Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/3] media: uapi: h264: update reference lists

Hello Jernej,

I'd like to post a new H264 uAPI cleanup series soon,
would you mind resending this, or otherwise do you
mind if I include this patch in the series?

See below for a tiny comment.

Could we use a macro for "32" here? Something like:

#define V4L2_H264_REF_PIC_LIST_LEN (V4L2_H264_NUM_DPB_ENTRIES * 2).

Does it make sense to add a comment as well?

I was thinking something along these lines:

"""
Pictures in the DPB can be a frame, a complementary field pair or a
single field.
Therefore, reference pictures lists need twice as much entries, so it
can reference
either field of a field pair.
"""

While it doesn't replace proper H264 specification reading,
it would add some clarity.

Thanks,
Ezequiel
