[PATCH 12/16] drm/amd/display: Require minimum VBlank size for stutter optimization

From: Dillon Varone <dillon.varone at amd.com>

If the nominal VBlank is too small, optimizing for stutter can cause
the prefetch bandwidth to increase drasticaly, resulting in higher
clock and power requirements. Only optimize if it is >3x the stutter
latency.
