BSpec "Address Tiling Function Introduction/Linear vs Tiled Storage":
"""
Note that the dimensions of tiles are irrespective of the data contained
within – e.g., a tile can hold twice as many 16-bit pixels (256
pixels/row x 8 rows = 2K pixels) than 32-bit pixels (128 pixels/row x 8
rows = 1K pixels).
"""

"Tile-Yf Format":
"""
The 64 Byte block is always 4-high. Width (in pixels) is defined by bpp.
"""

Then it continues to specify the different tile aspect ratios for
different bpps which contradict the above. This aspect ratio definition
is what matches the current code. Filing a BSpec issue for this would be
good.
