[RFC PATCH] drm/exynos: fix pending update handling

Hello everyone,

any update on this issue? I can see that the old/custom wait-for-vblank
code is still in place.

Andrzej mentioned that this patch is quick/dirty, but isn't using DRM
core functionality actually the better approach?

With best wishes,
Tobias
