Hi Ramesh,

Thank you for the patch.

The value between parentheses is the ASCII representation of the 4CC, it 
should be SC16. Same comment for the other formats.

Please specify here how the 14-bit numbers are aligned (i.e. padding in bits 
15:14 or bits 1:0 or any other strange option). Same comment for the other 
formats.

Please use the more compact table stable

	* - start + 0:
	  - I'\ :sub:`0[D13:D6]`
	  ...

Same comment for the other formats.

The format looks planar, does it use one V4L2 plane (as does NV12) or two V4L2 
planes (as does NV12M) ? Same question for the other formats.

Your example below suggests that 18 bit data is stored in 24 bits. Similar 
comment for SCU20.
