Note that since I sent the last iteration, I've renamed it to
drm_crtc_next_vblank_start().

I would prefer to keep the arithmetic, because I have another use for
this helper in drm/msm (for async/cursor updates, where we want to set
an hrtimer for start of vblank).  It is a bit off the topic of this
series, but I can include the patch when I repost.
