I'd go with explicit flags. We have one for interlaced already. Although
ATM the interlaced flag must mean that the fields are interleaved in the
same buffer. But if we want separate buffers for each field, we need a
flag for that too. Or we just pretend the old interlace flag doesn't
exist yet and steal it for that purpose. I don't think anyone is using
the flag yet. But anyway we'd need a new ioctl :(
