scheduled vblank event.

This patch tries to make sure that the vbl.reply.sequence
vblank count for a queued or emitted vblank event always
corresponds to the true vblank count of queueing/emission, so
the ddx can rely on the returned target_msc for consistency
checks and implementation of swap_intervals in glXSwapBuffers().

Without this there is a small race-condition between the
userspace ddx queueing a vblank event and the vblank
counter incrementing before the event gets queued in
the kernel.
