You might want to state that top and left are always 0.

I like this. This would also make it possible to set the 'canvas' size of an
mem2mem device. Currently calling S_FMT for a mem2mem device cannot setup any
scaler since there is no native size. Instead S_FMT effectively *sets* the 
native
size. The same is true for webcams with a scaler, which is why you added this in
the first place. Obviously for sensors this target is read-only, but for a 
mem2mem
device it can be writable as well.

However, to make full use of this you also need to add input and output
capabilities if the native size can be set:

        V4L2_IN_CAP_NATIVE_SIZE
        V4L2_OUT_CAP_NATIVE_SIZE

(see ENUMINPUT/ENUMOUTPUT)

This would nicely fill in a hole in the V4L2 Spec.
