Nah, we want that the the mode we simulate is the mode userspace
requested. That's how real hardware works.

For simulating virtual hardware the rules are slightly different:
There's no vblank support at all, and page flip events complete
immediately (or as long as it takes the virtual hw to upload the
buffers for display, if there's some copying involved).
drm_calc_timestamping_constants() is the helper you can use to
compute/fill in the necessary constants, but the atomic helpers do
that for you already. Note that you can't access
drm_crtc->state.requested_mode from the vblank handler, since your
hrtimer does not hold the required locks.

kms_flip should complain about the timestamps not matching with the
requested mode without this. You might need to force a specific edid
with a vrefresh that doesn't match your hardcoded one though to
actually see the bug.
