I believe that Hantro G2 VP9 needs ref_frame_sign_biases.

I think that it's also needed for the MTK decoder.
Might be worth checking that as well, if the code is publicly
available somewhere.

Coming to think about it, I think we are really close to having
this uAPI directly upstream.

Let's take a step back on why we have these uAPIs in the staging
area. Couple years ago, there were some doubts in the media community
about these uAPIs, and we wanted to wait a bit for more users
before moving to public land.

The uAPIs were meant to be in staging until enough users
appeared and we were confident enough to move to stable.

For VP9, given the feedback received through the year was already
addressed, I think all that's left is to check the interface and make sure
it can support Rockchip (RK3399, RK3326, etc), Hantro G2 and Mediatek,

We will be very close to having a public API, and we could even merge it
directly there.

Thanks,
Ezequiel
