Subject: media: v4l2: clarify H.264 loop filter offset controls
The venus and s5p-mfc drivers add the loop filter alpha/beta offset
controls V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_LOOP_FILTER_ALPHA/BETA with a range of
-6 to +6, inclusive. This is exactly the range specified for the slice
header fields slice_alpha_c0_offset_div2 and slice_beta_offset_div2,
which store half the actual filter offsets FilterOffsetA/B.
Clarify that this control contains the halved offsets.
