[PATCH 1/4] drm/amd/display: Prevent vblank irq disable while VRR is active. (v2)

During VRR mode we can not allow vblank irq dis-/enable
transitions, as an enable after a disable can happen at
an arbitrary time during the video refresh cycle, e.g.,
with a high likelyhood inside vblank front-porch. An
enable during front-porch would cause vblank timestamp
updates/calculations which are completely bogus, given
the code can't know when the vblank will end as long
as we are in front-porch with no page flip completed.

Hold a permanent vblank reference on the crtc while
in active VRR mode to prevent a vblank disable, and
drop the reference again when switching back to fixed
refresh rate non-VRR mode.

v2: Make sure transition is also handled if vrr is
    disabled and stream gets disabled in the same
    atomic commit. Suggested by Nicholas.
