Indeed the src_fmt should use coded width/height (as per spec). The driver will
then adapt to its own requirement resulting into the "native" width height being
returned. Notice that s_ctrl() should fail in case of miss-match (this is CODEC
specific), or streamon() should fail if the codec specific control have never
been set (as we always initialise this, it will fail due to default being an
invalid value anyway).

As a side effect, when userland read the default format (G_FMT(CAPTURE), the
width/height should match the src_dst for this driver. This is the native size.
The optional path that this driver enables is enumeration of CAPTURE format and
frame sizes, combined with to select from these. The driver will create a
secondary set of buffers in the case.
