Ah yes that fits the evidence we have from Melissa pretty well: Not
turning off the CRTC means the next test wont have to turn it back on
again. And the vblank bug seems to be in the code which turns the crtc
back on. At least inserting a vblank wait in there is enough to paper over
all the issues, per Melissa's testing.

So at least we're now fairly confident where the bug is, that's some solid
progress.
