Something I've been saying all along: If you call something a "pipe", it
*must* mean Intel hardware pipe. If you call something "crtc index", it
*must* mean the ABI crtc index. Don't mix the two. Don't implicitly
convert between the two (i.e. you need explicit conversion using the
IOCTL). Assume it's purely a coincidence that they've previously matched
1:1.

In this case, naming is everything, and proper naming leads to clarity
of the concepts and implementation.

BR,
Jani.
