We disable local interrupts, but interrupts can still happen on another cpu.

I think I'm not paranoid enough here. I should probably stop touching work as soon as I call intel_mark_page_flip_active,
so moving it from .queue_flip to after i915_gem_request_assign would be best.
This would allow us to ensure the work struct is completely filled in when mark_page_flip_active is called, with no intermediate states to worry about.
