I do wonder whether we'll need the split formats in practice -
e.g. the GC3000 on the i.MX6qp, for which I suppose this is being done because
of tiled buffers support in the PRE, has the "single buffer" feature
which allows rendering to a single buffer with multiple pixel pipes.
This is what the Vivante driver uses.

But it can't hurt reserving formats for them.
