Re: [PATCH] media: verisilicon: Additional fix for the crash when opening the driver

[Ezequiel Garcia]

Hi guys,

After reviewing the format logic (hantro_reset_encoded_fmt and
hantro_reset_raw_fmt).
It seems to me trying to support Decoders, Encoders and so many
different SoC Variants, is getting increasingly fragile.
This driver is becoming a big fat monolith. Regressions like this will
be increasingly frequent.

The only codec that supports encoding right now is JPEG, so I think
it's a good idea to remove it for good,
and split it to its own driver.

Anyone volunteering? :-)

Thanks,
Ezequiel
