It looks like it ought to work if handoff didn't specify any flags.

If handoff *did* specify flags, there's not much (sane) we can do with
the current implementation, aside from just marking the whole batch for
discard, which probably isn't what you want (unless you're from the
future, using libxcb2 and deal entirely with batches... but I digress).

I've updated the documentation for v3 of the patch.

The rest of the file mixes tabs and spaces for indent. There is a space
after some of the ifs. I guess I chose the wrong style in each case.

I have no excuse for not matching the file's style here.

Looks good.

Thanks for the review. v3 attached.
