I like the idea. Atomic could use this too, although there we'd need to
potentially pass in a target vblank for each crtc taking part of the
operation, or I suppose you could pass it only for, say, a single crtc
in case you only want ot sync to that one.
One thing I've pondered in the past is the OML_sync_control modulo stuff.
Looks like what you have here won't free up userspace from doing the
wait_vblank+flip sequence if it wants to implement the modulo behaviour.
And of course it's still not guaranteed to honor the modulo if, for
instance, the flip ioctl itself gets blocked on a mutex for a wee bit too
long and misses the target. So should we just implement the modulo stuff
in the kernel instead?
