That's actually completely incorrect.
With the capture device interfacing directly with CSI, it's possible
_today_ to select:
* the CSI sink pad's resolution
* the CSI sink pad's resolution with the width and/or height halved
* the CSI sink pad's frame rate
* the CSI sink pad's frame rate divided by the frame drop factor
To put it another way, these are possible:
# v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video10 --list-formats-ext
ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT
Index : 0
Type : Video Capture
Pixel Format: 'RGGB'
Name : 8-bit Bayer RGRG/GBGB
Size: Discrete 816x616
Interval: Discrete 0.040s (25.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.048s (20.833 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.050s (20.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.053s (18.750 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.060s (16.667 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.067s (15.000 fps)

Interval: Discrete 0.100s (10.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.120s (8.333 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.160s (6.250 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.200s (5.000 fps)
Interval: Discrete 0.240s (4.167 fps)
Size: Discrete 408x616
<same intervals>
Size: Discrete 816x308
<same intervals>
Size: Discrete 408x308
<same intervals>
These don't become possible as a result of implementing the enums,
they're all already requestable through /dev/video10.
