VDSC engine is attached to the eDP/DSI transcoders and this gets used
for eDP/DSI VDSC on Pipe A.
So we could call it VDSC_PIPE_A since VDSC on Pipe A for eDP/DSI
will use this power well. But may be we should add a comment that
this is only for eDP/DSI on Pipe A since ICL does not support
VDSC on DP on Pipe A

What do you think?
