Hm, shouldn't we change this to only enable the vblank irq if we need it,
i.e. offdelay == 0? For delayed disabling there's kinda no need to enable
it superflously after a modeset, if userspace didn't yet ask for vblank
timestamps. But then is was specifically added by Ville in cd19e52aee922,
so I guess someone really wants this.
