There are no frame sizes added for the capture formats, so this function
effectively returns -EINVAL for any of them. This is also what rkvdec
does: it only looks through the list of coded formats.

Also, struct v4l2_frmsizeenum does not have a field saying whether it's
capture or output side; it simply specifies a pixel format.

It's also in s_fmt(), so touched on in patch 4. I could also rewrite it so
only this spot has the special case, and all the other places look though
mtk_vdec_framesizes to get the maximum, like what I did for try_fmt in
patch 3. What do you think?

Ultimately I think it would be better to move framesizes into the
(driver-specific) pixel format data structure. That is a bigger refactoring
than a simple fix though.

Yes. That is what I mentioned in chat about refactoring the ioctls and format
handling code. set_default should really not set anything format specific,
but instead call set_fmt with a default format.
