No, but assembling the packets and shipping frames to a destination is not 
neccessarily the same thing.

A nice workflow would be to signal to the shim that "I'm sending a 
compressed video format" and then the shim/tsn_core will ship out the 
frames over the network - and then you need to set TSN_CVF as subtype in 
each header.

That does not that mean you should do H.264 encode/decode *in* the kernel

Perhaps this is better placed in include/uapi/tsn.h so that userspace and 
kernel share the same header?
