I put them per scaler basis for future scalability, but can make them as one copy.
It has some cascading effect on other patches so send out this one and other
impacted ones.

num_scalers isn't symmetric across pipes, so we need maintain it per crtc.

I looked at other variables carrying bits, for example, disable_pipes, 
prepare_pipes, modeset_pipes, disabled_planes etc. and all are 
using just like above. And followed the same.
