Note that also the fourcc code itself could contains spaces so that's not
new.
The fourcc (debug) form is now one and the same for V4L2 and DRM, but I
guess nothing would prevent adding a shorter form if needed. This is not
continuously happening during streaming so this is also not performance
critical in any way. The fourcc code was used to be printed this way here
mainly because it was, well, easy to do for "just" debugging purposes.
Hans, any opinion?
