[Bhanu] I think no need to change the logic in get_vblank_event_ns(). May be we can have extra check (like "ev.base.type == event") to make sure we are reading the correct event.

Call flow:
1) drmWaitVBlank --> get_vblank_event_ns(): will get the DRM_EVENT_VBLANK event timestamp
2) igt_display_commit_atomic(DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_EVENT) --> get_vblank_event_ns(): will get the DRM_EVENT_FLIP_COMPLETE event timestamp

Yeah, we can rename the get_vblank_event_ns() in a generic way like get_event_ns()
