handling the CFA pattern in the media bus code and pixel format was a
historical mistake that we're slowly addressing for new drivers. Sakari
has for instance posted patches to use the Y formats only on sensor
subdevs that will follow the new raw camera sensor subdev model. I think
we should use Y formats in the VSP and ISP drivers already.

I actually expect the ISP driver to expose Y formats only to userspace,
and get the CFA pattern from the ISP parameters buffers.

No quite, the ISP driver would give us Y formats, and the translation to
RGB332 and RGB565 would be handled within the VSP1 driver, in the
vsp1_vspx_rwpf_set_subdev_fmt() function.
