The summary for this patch is incorrect; the function being fixed is
drm_crtc_accurate_vblank_event.

And, I'm afraid you've uncovered a rabbit hole here -- there are a
couple of users of this function outside of the core, including i915 in
a couple of places and nouveau. We should at least review the whole call
graph starting here and make sure it does what we think it should.

Thanks for finding these bugs!
