Interesting. I don't quite remember what prompted adding this, it may have to
do with other hacks to support single-vertex-stream GPUs which have since been
removed, so it's likely stale.

In any case heeding PIPE_TRANSFER_UNSYNCHRONIZED makes sense. It should not just
be ignored because the driver thinks it knows better.

OK.
