The pixel clock is no longer specified by struct v4l2_mbus_framefmt, it's
now determined by V4L2_CID_IMAGE_PROC_LINK_FREQ controls, right ?

When you drop the class name from the control names, it is perhaps better
to just use V4L2_CID_LINK_FREQUENCY name.

All words in control descriptions need to be capitalized. :-)
