Hi Martin,

thank you for the patch. I'd prefer to just drop CODA_STD_MJPG
altogether, to avoid confusion. Explanation below:

These are only ever used to feed them into the CMD_ENC_SEQ_COD_STD
register, and only for MPEG4, H263 (which we don't support), and H264.

On i.MX53 the correct value was 3 once, but it was only used in the
userspace library, it was never written to any register. On i.MX6 JPEG
encoding can be implemented without going through the BIT processor at
all.
