I don't like being forced to use the "pipe" naming in all drivers; I
found that really confusing when I first looked at DRM, and it took
a long time to work out that "pipe" basically means "crtc" or "gpu".

What's wrong with keeping "crtc" as the index terminology for crtc
things?  Surely that's more descriptive of what's going on here?
