Pentax firmware has some settings which _could_ apply to jpg-only, eg
noise reduction, but I am not sure. IMHO the default settings should be
used with RAW, because most people use this and do not deactivate /
change special settings with every shot.

So if a RAW has a correction already, this RAW should be the base for a
lensfun correction, IMHO. Maybe there can be found a hint in the
makernotes-metadata.
