If it was identical, we'd need no flag. The requirement to use the flag is not
discoverable. What I'm guessing is that anything above 1080p needs the flag. But
then if you enable that flag, you loose the ability to use references, so that
would equally break normal VP8. It seems like a VP8 decoder is compatible with
WebP, but a WebP decoder is not compatible with VP8.
I cannot accept what you believe is a simple solution since its not discover-
able by userspace. The Hantro VP8 decoder driver is not the only VP8 driver, so
the GStreamer implementation would break randomly on other SoC.
My recommendation is to introduce V4L2_PIX_FMT_WEBP_FRAME, and make it so that
format reused 100% of the VP8_FRAME format (very little work, no flag needed
since the format holds that). This way, drivers can be very explicit through
their ENUM_FORMAT implementation, and can also expose different resolution
ranges properly.

p.s. you should draft the required synthesis check and postproc code, I can test
it for you.
