That is true, but that is completely unrelated to this patch. What you are
referring to happens before the codec init, for the value in AVCodecContext,
while this patch address the problem of an AVFrame created with a
channel_layout different from the one in the corresponding AVCodecContext.

We can consider adding some feature to make the application programmer's
life simpler (but not based on av_get_default_channel_layout()! based on
AVCodec.channel_layouts), but this patch would still be needed.
