Ideally I'd like to test that on i.MX7 but I don't think I'll have time
to do so in the near future. I don't want to block the patch on this, so
I'm fine merging it, but I'd like a comment in the code that explains
why it's safe to depart from the documentation.

Also, the discussion on the NXP forum said that a width that is a
multiple of 4 bytes but not a multiple of 8 bytes works only if the
height is also a multiple of 4. I don't see that constraint being
enforced in the code, am I missing something ?

You mentioned in the forum that you tried 1052x779 and that failed. How
did it fail ? Have you also tried 1052x778 ?
