Shouldn't local_irq_save go into intel_vblank_section_enter()? It seems 
all callers from both i915 and xe end up doing that anyway and naming 
"vblank_start" was presumed there would be more to the section than 
cacheline mmio bug. I mean that there is some benefit from keeping the 
readout timings tight.
