Hmm, not a good idea to align a public interface to the capabilities
of a single hardware implementation. min/max confidence could be queried with
relevant controls and here we could remove the line implying range.

How about using struct v4l2_rect in place of centerx/centery, sizex/sizey ?
After all it describes a rectangle. We could also use struct v4l2_frmsize_discrete
for size but there seems to be missing en equivalent for position, e.g.

struct v4l2_position {
	__s32 x;
	__s32 y;
};

mouth_eye ? ;)

I would do this differently, i.e. put "flag" inside struct v4l2_obj_detection
and then struct v4l2_fd_detection would be simply an array of
struct v4l2_obj_detection, i.e.

struct v4l2_fd_detection {
	unsigned int count;
	struct v4l2_obj_detection [V4L2_MAX_FD_OBJECT_NUM];
};

This might be more flexible, e.g. if in the future some hardware supports
detecting wrinkles, we could easily add that by just defining a new flag:
V4L2_FD_HAS_WRINKLES, etc.
