Yep, you're right. I had assumed that there was hardcoding all over
since we had only had 4x4 block formats, but looks like (a) it's not
hardcoded, at least in a few critical places, and (b) FXT1 uses an 8x4
block size (although FXT1 is probably not *the* most popular
compression format).

Should be relatively straightforward to plumb all this through to
gallium + freedreno + a4xx. Not sure when I'll have time for it
though.
