This is not true. The pixel depth (bpp) tells how the bits are paked
in the memory and does not correlate with the number of physically
connected pins. For example: you can have a 16 pin LCD and decide to
display it as 16bpp or 32bpp.

So keeping the bpp in the name of these data structure is not correct
as you are only describing the physical connection.
