The functions that you are referring to call
i915_gem_object_pin_to_display_plane() which in turn calls frontbuffer
flush. This patch is just a refactor, doesn't change whether flush() is
called. I am trying to move it up the call stack so that flush() can be
selectively removed depending on the call site.
