I don't think the claim really exists. 	For this driver, when *nplane is set,
it will be:


        case V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE:
                requested_planes = f->fmt.pix_mp.num_planes;
                if (requested_planes == 0 ||
                    requested_planes > VIDEO_MAX_PLANES)
                        return -EINVAL;
                for (i = 0; i < requested_planes; i++)
                        requested_sizes[i] =
                                f->fmt.pix_mp.plane_fmt[i].sizeimage;
                break;

Or the value the driver have set it in the previous call with *nplane == 0. So
unless there is a bug, this should not happen, and more importantly, the core
should not let that happen, meaning it should not be driver jobs to validate
this.

my 2 cents,
Nicolas
