Render compression related checks will be coming as part of that patch.

Last checked some folks are still using, so keep it intact for completeness.

Initially optimized to enable only when nv12 is used,
but there are some corner cases when planes switch to and 
from nv12 to non-nv12 and SV recommendation is to enable
always; and SV evaluated cost, and it isn't a big concern.
