[PATCH 9/9] dri2: Fix corner case crash for swaplimit > 1

[Mario Kleiner]

If a swaplimit > 1 is set on a server which
supports the swaplimit api (XOrg 1.12.0+),
the following can happen:

1. Client calls glXSwapBuffersMscOML() with a
   swap target > 1 vblank in the future, or a
   client calls glXSwapbuffers() while the swap
   interval is set to > 1 (unusual but possible).

2. nouveau_dri2_finish_swap() is therefore called
   only at the target vblank, instead of immediately.

3. Because of the deferred execution of
   nouveu_dri2_finish_swap(), the OpenGL client
   can call x-servers DRI2GetBuffersWithFormat()
   before nouveau_dri2_finish_swap() executes and
   it deletes pixmaps that would be needed by
   nouveau_dri2_finish_swap() --> Segfault --> Crash.

Prevent this: When a swap is scheduled into the
future, we temporarily reduce the swaplimit to 1
until nouveau_dri2_finish_swap() is done, then
restore it to its original value. This throttles
the client inside the server in DRI2ThrottleClient()
before it can call the evil DRI2GetbuffersWithFormat().

The client will still be released one video refresh
interval before swap completion, so there is still
some potential win.

This doesn't affect the common case of swapping at
the next vblank, where this throttling is not needed
or done.
