> 2. client submitted buffers can be Y-tiled (w/ 'Option "dmabuf_capable"') 3.
> we try to switch from the X-tiled buffer to the Y-tiled buffer
>    using an async flip (when vsync is disabled).
> 4. the async flip will be rejected by i915 due to the modifier change
> 
> Relax the rules a bit by turning the first async flip into a sync flip so that we
