The number of 'entry point offset' could be very variable.
Rather than use a large static array define a v4l2 dynamic array
of integer control.
I suggest we should be more specific and say U32 (V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_U32).

The number of entry point offsets is reported by the elems field.
I did few more tests and these are my findings:
1. dynamic array can't be set over size, specified in .dims array
2. entry point offsets are per slice, so if we make slices dynamic array, 
then 
entry points would become two dimensional dynamic array
3. num_entry_point_offsets must be part of slice control, because it can be 
zero, but size of array can't be
Clarification: num_entry_point_offsets is needed in any case, even without entry 
point list.
4. fortunately, not setting entry points doesn't impact decoding 
correctness. 
This is in line what John told me about them.

Hans, can you comment points 1-3? I might misunderstand point 1.

In short, it seems like we don't really need entry points, even if they are 
used in BSP library. In both cases, I got fluster score 119/138 (10-bit 
excluded), so we can just drop this patch, although I'm a bit uneasy not 
setting entry points...

Best regards,
Jernej

all places, including subject line of this commit.

Additionally, it would be nice if control is initialized, like so:
