The ipu3-css.c also has a memset on the plane formats in the
migu_css_queue_init(), but that's possibly still out of scope for this
patch ('just')

        struct v4l2_pix_format_mplane *const f = &queue->fmt.mpix;
        memset(f->reserved, 0, sizeof(f->reserved));

I can't yet see anything that clears the reserved formats on queue
initialisations, so I don't think we can remove that yet unless I've
missed something anyway.

Seems like there is a lot more that could be cleared in core ...

But - as I said, I think that's out of scope here so
