  The minimum width and height for VPE input/output was kept as 128 pixels. VPE
doesn't have a constraint on the image height, it requires the image width to
be atleast 16 bytes.

Change the minimum supported dimensions to 32x32. This allows us to de-interlace
qcif content. A smaller image size than 32x32 didn't make much sense, so stopped
at this.

"16 bytes" - shouldn't it be pixels? (also "at least" :) ) 
I can correct it when applying the patch if the above is the case.

VPDMA IP requires the line stride of the input/output images to be at 
least 16 bytes in total.

This can safely result in a minimum width of 16 pixels(NV12 has the 
least bpp with 1 byte per pixel). But we don't really have any need to 
support such small image resolutions. So I picked up 32x32 as the 
minimum size, and tested VPE with that.

Thanks,
Archit
