Correct. The semantics of g/s_crop for output devices is really weird
and g/s_crop is generally useless for mem2mem devices.

You should completely ignore the old g/s_crop and only look at g/s_selection.

Yes. What this means is that userspace has to use g/s_selection for
mem2mem devices since g/s_crop changes the wrong thing: compose instead
of crop for OUTPUT and crop instead of compose for CAPTURE.

The g/s_selection ioctls were added to solve this problem with g/s_crop.
It always confuses people and it was due to a lack of foresight when the
old crop API was designed: it was made for video capture where you
crop on the hardware side (in the video receiver), and for video output it
would compose the image in the video transmitter's total frame (usually
720x480/576). None of this applies in general to memory-to-memory devices.
