Why do you need this? Doesn't the V4L2 pixelformat already explicitly
define the format, including packing?

Instead of using controls, all ISP drivers merged within five or so years
use a parameter buffer. This could be said as being the best known approach
to pass the parameters to the ISP. Could you do the same here?
