Thank you for reviewing my patch nevertheless! =)

I agree with the idea that these hooks should get streamlined.

However, this particular approach will break things when the output_fmt
is defaulted to MEDIA_BUS_FMT_FIXED. Even if we add this format as a
fall-through case along with MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X24, tidss driver
will too then receive MEDIA_BUS_FMT_FIXED as an expected output format
and will throw an error.

The possibility of an equivalent if-check was discussed in the previous
version[1].

I am working on adding OLDI support for tidss, but if we can resolve the
above concern, and Javier agrees, I will be happy to add an incremental
fix for this! =)
