So this is not a crash. Its a warning splat coming from

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/msm/-/blob/msm-next/drivers/gpu/drm/msm/disp/dpu1/dpu_crtc.c#L785

Looks like the complete_commit() which should signal the event has not 
happened before the next cursor commit.

Somehow this change is affecting the flow to miss the event signaling 
that the event is done.

We tried a couple of approaches but couldnt still fix the warning.

Will continue to check further next week.
