I'd rather stay consistent with H.264 specification, which uses the
wording as defined in Alex's patch. Otherwise it would be difficult to
correlate between the controls and the specification, which is
something that the userspace developer would definitely need to
understand how to properly parse the stream and obtain the decoding
parameters.

It doesn't seem to be related to the spec in this case and "params"
sounds better indeed.
