Ugly workaround.
After a long debugging session I came to the conclusion that this issue was
related to the hardware cursor plane being disabled when enabling the display
plane.
I tried several workarounds, the one attached is the simplest.
I would like to put it up for discussion as it contains an ugly and totally
not-understood delay which was determined experimentally.
It seems that the only way to avoid this problem is to wait for a vblank and
then add an delay of about 8-15 milliseconds.
It turned out that a shorter or longer delay let the problem reoccur.</pre>
