I'm definitely seeing something odd going on with the plane double buffering on
my SKL here. The PLANE_CTL=0 write doesn't seem to stick sometimes and instead
I'm seeing the plane scanning out stale data instead of being off. I suspect
this could happen when the PLANE_CTL write lands before the vblank, and the
PLANE_SURF write lands after the vblank, but I'll need to do some more low
level hw poking to confirm that theory.</pre>
