So far I haven't pushed the pas-id defines to the public scm header, but
we could do that and until we see a discrepancy just use that define
here.

As the states aren't globally defined I think it makes sense to just
keep them opaque in the scm-world and have the two(?) states defined
locally here in the adreno driver.

Sounds good.
