Hi Smitha,
I have no big experience with HEVC, so it is hard to review it
appropriately but I will try do my best.
As these control names goes to user space you should be very careful
about it.
I guess it could be good to compare these controls with other HEVC
encoders including software ones (ffmpeg, intel, ...) to find some
similarities, common naming convention.

Should be "HEVC I-Frame", it looks like the convention is to upper-case
first letter of all words,
and the convention is I-Frame, B-Frame, P-Frame, here and in the next
controls.
I would drop also the word "value", but it is already used in other
controls so I do not know :)

Shouldn't it be "... Region Adaptive RC", or "... Region Adaptive Rate
Control" ?

I guess 0 - means main tier, 1 means high tier, am I right? In such case
it should be named "HEVC high tier" or sth similar.

What is purpose of this control? Macro name suggest sth different than
string.

Could you enumerate these refresh types, in patch 9 and documentation,
maybe it would be worth to make it menu.

I see: enable, enabled, select. Let it be consistent.

There is LF in macro name.

You sometimes add HEVC prefix sometimes not, why?
Could you describe more these controls in documentation (patch 9), it is
hard to guess what they do.
