Essentially the kerneldoc comments added in f99d70690e075

Unfortunately (mostly because intel_display.c is one giant mess) this is
not yet extracted into the overal HTML rendering of all drm/i915
documentation at:

http://people.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm/

Currently only PSR uses this, but Rodrigo is working on patches to make
FBC also use this to detect frontbuffer updates. Might be useful to chat
with Rodrigo about this, too.

For DRRS it is probably best to hook intel_mark_fb_busy and then rearm a
idle timer (or work item, depending upon the chosen locking scheme) just
for DRRS to go back to the slow clock. The legacy DRRS functions
(increase/decrease_pllclock) are also wired up similarly, but you can't
use them as an exact template: They don't do locking, and the mark_idle is
really pessimistic - with a simple per-crtc DRRS timer we can be a lot
more precise.

tbh I've lost track of all the DRRS stuff a bit. Might be useful to rebase
all the remaining patches so that we have an overview again.

But better to do that only after we've sketched the DRRS integration under
discussion here.
