Not much but Yes. Rotator devices of Exynos SoC support various pixel formats; RGB888, RGB565, YUV422, YUV420-2Plane, and YUV420-3Plane, and each of these pixel formats could be different limitation to minimum and maximum sizes.
For example, the below shows the limitation to Rotator device of Exynos4412 SoC according to pixel formats,
         Image format          Minimum size          Maximum size
          RGB888                    8x8                     8kx8k
          RGB565                    16x16                  16kx16k
          YUV422                    16x16                  16kx16k
          YUV420 2-Plane         32x32                  32kx32k(in case of Y components)
          YUV420 3-Plane         64x32                  32kx32k(in case of Y components)

And, I guess those limitations are slightly different according to Exynos SoC versions as long as I know.
