Why not add a 'bool is_rgb' to struct vpe_fmt?

It is all too easy to forget to update this function if a new RGB format is
added to the vpe_formats array in the future.

double space after enum.

This is highly confusing. RGB or YUV conversion does not change the colorspace
at all.

There are four colorimetry related fields: colorspace, xfer_func, ycbcr_enc and
quantization. Most hardware (including this one AFAICT) have a 3x3 matrix + a
vector to do the conversion. This only allows you to convert between different
ycbcr encodings and quantization ranges. The colorspace and xfer_func parameters
stay unchanged (you need gamma tables and two other 3x3 matrices for that).

So if you want to set up the 3x3 matrix + vector correctly, then you need to
provide the ycbcr_enc value + quantization value of the source to your function.
ycbcr_enc is only valid of YUV pixelformats, of course, and you can use
V4L2_MAP_COLORSPACE_DEFAULT, V4L2_MAP_YCBCR_ENC_DEFAULT and V4L2_MAP_QUANTIZATION_DEFAULT
if one or more of these values as set by userspace are 0.

Since the V4L2 API does not (yet) support setting ycbcr_enc and quantization for the
capture queue you have to provide that information yourself:

For RGB ycbcr_enc is of course ignored, and quantization should be full range.
For YUV it depends: the quantization is always limited range, but for the ycbcr_enc
you have a choice: if the source was YUV, then you can decide to just copy the
ycbcr_enc value. Alternatively, you can convert to 601 for SDTV and 709 for anything
else. The latter is also the recommended choice if the source was RGB.

In any case, please do not use enum v4l2_colorspace in the csc_set_coeff function:
it's misleading.

https://hverkuil.home.xs4all.nl/spec/uapi/v4l/colorspaces.html and the following two
sections contain a lot of information about how colorspaces work.
