"Allwinner Tiled NV12 Format"

If it is Allwinner specific, then that should be in the PIX_FMT name as well:
something like V4L2_PIX_FMT_ALLWINNER_MB32_NV12 or perhaps SUNXI_MB32_NV12.

On the other hand, you could also see this as a variant of e.g. V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12MT
or V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12MT_16X16. In that case it is not necessarily Allwinner specific
since other devices might choose this format. You can go either way, as long
as it is consistent.
