OK I will do that.

The same structure can used for future Verisilicon hardware block so I would prefer to
keep it here.

I will do that.

Chapter "7.18.3.3. Generate grain process" of AV1 spec doesn't define/name
these values so keep them like this make the code more easy to review with
the spec.

https://aomediacodec.github.io/av1-spec/#generate-grain-process

That said I'm always for naming values so good suggestion are welcome.

Thanks,
