Nicolas, can you take a look at this with your codec knowledge?

I'd add a_ before the ID, so: V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_BASELAYER_PRIORITY_ID.

I'm slightly rephrasing the text above:

       Specifies a priority identifier for the NAL unit, which will be applied to
       the base layer. By default this value is set to 0 for the base layer,
       and the next layer will have the priority ID assigned as 1, 2, 3 and so on.
       The video encoder can't decide the priority id to be applied to a layer,
       so this has to come from client.
       Valid Range: from 0 to 63.

For which codecs is this applicable? H264 and HEVC? That should be stated. If you
have a reference to the corresponding sections that describe this, then that would
be nice to add.
