Is this a camera class control or an image source one ?
Also, isn't pixel size a bit too generic? I would somehow specify this is
the physical pixel size

Isn't this a read-only control?

Ah yes, you set flags here... I don't get why we have two switches
here.. Anyway, I would set both type and flags in a single case,
otherwise one should jump back and forth...

I wonder if instead of defining a 'pixel size' this shouldn't be a
more generic v4l2_size or something similar. Or even a v4l2_rect with
left=top=0.

leftovers ?

I don't see other compound controls with a custom payload adding their
types here. What am I missing?
