Okay thanks for the details.

I think I've delayed this for far too long already so I think we should get it
in without further delay.

The patch apparently no longer applies on top of media/master, but feel free
to send out a rebased series with:

Acked-by: Paul Kocialkowski <paul.kocialkowski@bootlin.com>

Let's leave out 2/3 though, I think I will submit a series adding the flag
as indication for the per-slice value in the uAPI and use it in cedrus.

Cheers,

Paul
