I haven't tested it as I don't have any hardware that does i80 mode.
Let's keep this check only for !i80 then.

I think it is okay to skip finish_pageflip, but we could return directly
if they are different, so we keep the wait_vsync_queue running until the next
irq happens or it timeouts. How does this look to you?
