[PATCH] drm/qxl: workaround broken qxl hw primary setting.

[Dave Airlie]

From: Dave Airlie <airlied at redhat.com>

QXL hw can't change primary surfaces easily, the server sends a msg
and the client flickers a lo when it does. The old pre-atomic
page flip code endeavoured to workaround this with a copy operation.

This worked by another accident of how the qxl virtual gpu is designed,
it does lazy operation evaluation on the host, so this operation
wouldn't generally trash the memory, and result in correct display.

This tries to work out when the commit is likely just a pageflip
and avoid touching the primary surface, this might go wrong at
some point but I believe it's the same level as wrong as the old code
base.
