Hi Matthias,

I think this was sort of how the original patch worked, but we wanted
to add some flexibility to allow different components to support
different formats. In patch 3 of the series, we actually overwrite
this field with mt8195_formats.

> Why can't we use ARRAY_SIZE(formats) here like we did before?
I think ARRAY_SIZE is just a macro for getting the length of
statically allocated arrays. Because we won't know until runtime which
list of pixel formats we will be using, I'm not sure we can use that
in this circumstance?

Justin
