The new format needs to be documented, in
Documentation/userspace-api/media/v4l/. See for instance the
metafmt-rkisp1.rst file in that directory.

Note that mapping the format to C structures as done by the rkisp1
driver is not mandatory, that's just one option in case the format can
be easily described that way. The important point is to precisely
document the format so that it can get used by userspace without access
to hardware documentation (as far as I understand, the ISP documentation
is not public).
