I'm not convinced the patch is making things any better really. To
fix this really properly, I think we'd need to introduce a new enum 
pch_transcoder and thus avoid the confusion of which type of
transcoder we're talking about. Currently most places expect an 
enum pipe when dealing with PCH transcoders, and enum transcoder
when dealing with CPU transcoders. But there are some exceptions
of course.
