sdformat->format.field should never be FIELD_ANY. If it is, then that's a
subdev bug and I'm pretty sure FIELD_NONE was intended.

No! Subdevs should never return COLORSPACE_DEFAULT. If they do, then fix
them. If this happens a lot (I'm not sure how reliably subdevs fill this
in) you could set it to COLORSPACE_RAW. Perhaps with a WARN_ON_ONCE.

Nack. This is meaningless.

This isn't wrong, but it is perfectly fine to keep the DEFAULT here and let
the application call V4L2_MAP_.

I get the feeling this patch is a workaround for subdev errors. Either that,
or the commit log doesn't give me enough information to really understand the
problem that's being addressed here.
