The audio sample format definition is from alsa,
the header file is include/uapi/sound/asound.h, but
don't include this header file directly, because in
user space, there is another copy in alsa-lib.
There will be conflict in userspace for include
videodev2.h & asound.h and asoundlib.h
Here still use the fourcc format.

Hmm... why can't we just use SNDRV_*_FORMAT_*? Those are already part of
an uAPI header. No need to add any abstraction here and/or redefine
what is there already at include/uapi/sound/asound.h.
Actually I try to avoid including the include/uapi/sound/asound.h.
Because in user space, there is another copy in alsa-lib (asoundlib.h).
There will be conflict in userspace when including videodev2.h and
asoundlib.h.
And in the V4l framework, the fourcc type is commonly used in other
cases (video, radio, touch, meta....), to avoid changing common code
a lot, so I think using fourcc definition for audio may be simpler.
