I guess 1,2,4 makes sense as we can just pass that into
eg. intel_mode_valid_max_plane_size() (though we need to
update all its other callers to pass a hardcoded 1 as well).

Just have to take care to not accidentally populate
crtc_state->joiner_pipes when num_pipes==1 (unless we rework
all the other places to do the right thing when there's just
one bit set in that bitmask).
