The above also clearly binds the size to the data that is expected to
contain there. I'd prefer keeping it as-is. And yes, 8 would be correct,
too.

The established practice is that big endian formats have "-BE" suffix
whereas the little endian ones have nothing. (At least when it comes to
V4L2.)

The rest of the struct memory has already been set to zero in variable
declaration.
