The rename and move was just to keep everything in a nice place.
_PIPEA_FLIPCOUNT_GM45 was never actually used AFAICT. Since it seemed I
needed to define a PIPEB anyway, I figured I'd try to adhere to the
other register convention.

I don't know what naming scheme we typically use to define these
registers, as I infrequently touch them. What is your recommendation,
I'll gladly update. I just used what the code around me used (and I
personally dislike that we call the stuff DSP[AB] anyway).

As a broader question, is that how we denote whether or not the register
exists on VLV, by not use dev_priv->info->display_mmio_offset + ? I was
sort of curious about this since I too was unsure about VLV.
