Looks like the underline can be shorten.

s/v4l2/V4L2/

I'd mention the control ID.

I'd swap the two sentences and clarify this a bit:

----
The dewarping map is set from applications using the
V4L2_CID_DW100_DEWARPING_16x16_VERTEX_MAP control. The control contains
an array of u32 values storing (x, y) destination coordinates for each
vertex of the grid. The x coordinate is stored in the 16 LSBs and the y
coordinate in the 16 MSBs. The number of elements in the array must
match the image size:

    elems = (DIV_ROUND_UP(width, 16) + 1)
          * (DIV_ROUND_UP(height, 16) + 1);

If the control doesn't contain the correct number of elements, the
driver uses an identity map.
----

This assumes I got the size calculation right :-)

Bonus points if you can format the code block correctly for sphinx.

I'm also wondering if the driver shouldn't return an error when the map
is incorrect, defaulting silently to an identity map can be confusing.

While at it you could replace the spaces with a tab here (and mention
that in the commit message, with a "While at it, ..." line).
