Is there open userspace for this? What's the behaviour vs. modeset:
does the modeset request block until the last-requested flip is
complete? If so, is there some kind of upper bound on the number of
blank periods to wait for? Is wraparound handled properly? Is all this
tested somewhere?

Cheers,
Daniel
