Long story, short: when the application creates buffers,
with e.g. REQBUF (see vb2_core_reqbufs), it will call
the driver (vb2_ops.queue_setup), to get the planes' sizes.

In the current model, for a given vb2 queue, all the buffers
are the same size. In practice, the simpler way to express
this is not allowing S_FMT if there are buffers allocated
in the queue (vb2_is_busy).

You could relax the vb2_is_busy requirement in your driver,
but I usually find it's not worth the trouble.

S_INPUT is used e.g. on capture devices that have multiple
inputs and can capture from one input at a time.

If the ioctl is empty like this, the driver can simply not support
the ioctl.
