The hardware never sees the uv_wm values (apart from
uv_wm.min_ddb_alloc affecting the ddb allocation). Thus there
is no point in comparing uv_wm to determine if we need to
reprogram the watermark registers. So let's check only the
rgb/y watermark in skl_plane_wm_equals(). But let's leave
a comment behind so that the next person reading this doesn't
get as confused as I did when I added this check.

If the ddb allocation ends up changing due to uv_wm
skl_ddb_add_affected_planes() takes care of adding the plane
to the state.

TODO: we should perhaps just eliminate uv_wm from the state
and simply track the min_ddb_alloc for uv instead.
