[PATCH 06/18] drm/amd/display: intermittent underflow observed when PIP is toggled in Full screen

From: Tashfique Abdullah <tabdullah at amd.com>

[Why]
The MPCC may change and request data when the pipes are switching from 2
to 1 or 1 to 2. During the switch there is a possibility of underflow
and flicker/missing data.

[How]
During VBlank the MPCC won't request data. The trick is to delay and
wait on VBlank, ONLY when pipes are either turning on or off, right
before MPCC is reset for the pipes.
