Ok, will do in v2.

You're right, the number of available planes with alpha has to be
changed accordingly. Will do in v2.

From my understanding, the limitation on the number of alpha planes only
takes effect after pipe allocation, so this change doesn't require
modifying the allocation algorithm.
Cheers and thanks for the review,
