That's a very valid concern.

Currently, each of these v4l2_h264_reference take 64 bytes
(32 x 2 bytes). So it's 128 bytes of references.

Having the reserved field means 256 bytes instead.

Without the reserved field v4l2_ctrl_h264_slice_params is 936 bytes,
the majority of the space taken by v4l2_h264_weight_factors.
So, the reserved field accounts for a small increment there.

Another option would be to split the v4l2_h264_reference lists
to its own control.

However, given the above, it would have more impact to consider
splitting v4l2_h264_pred_weight_table. This table
being used or not depends on the bitstream, so there might be
some value here.

What do you think?

That may be true indeed. Perhaps we can then agree that references
only need an index and a flag.

Thanks!
