I cannot claim, that I understand what all existing controls do, but in general, I would say, try to think, whether one of them has the same function, as what you need, is you find one - use it, if not - try to propose a new control ID. Of course, you can always implement a driver-private control, using V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE, but it is not for features, that are common for multiple devices.
