[PATCH v6 2/8] media: v4l: Add definition for Allwinner's MB32-tiled NV12 format

From: Paul Kocialkowski
Date: Wed Jul 25 2018 - 06:05:17 EST


This introduces support for Allwinner's MB32-tiled NV12 format, where
each plane is divided into macroblocks of 32x32 pixels. Hence, the size
of each plane has to be aligned to 32 bytes. The pixels inside each
macroblock are coded as they would be if the macroblock was a single
plane, line after line.

The MB32-tiled NV12 format is used by the video engine on Allwinner
platforms: it is the default format for decoded frames (and the only one
available in the oldest supported platforms).
