I have a feeling those four at least could be merged ahead of
time, and thus shrink what's left quite decently already.
Granted, you probably won't have the num_pipes value passed
in all the way from the top yet, so might have to do some
'joiner ? 2 : 1' here and there as a temporary measure.

I think getting this stuff out of the way would help
avoid confusion with the debugfs/compute_config changes
to some degree at least, and might help with bisectability,
Presumably it builds, but I'm not really convinced all the
intermediate steps would actually work 100% correctly.

For this stuff I'd like to see a HAS_BIGJOINER() and
HAS_UNCOMPRESSED_JOINER() like we have for most platform
features. This also seems like good material for stuff to
merge on its own, ahead of the rest of the more complicated 
stuff below.
