This function is copypasted tons of times over all drivers because they
were broken, and this hack at least got the events working. But in general
this here is racy, and if Mario ever runs on your hw he'll get upset about
the wrong timings.
If we go with this (and I'm really not convinced it's a good idea) then it
should have real big warning that you should never use this in a new
driver.

This check here completely torpedoes the design principle of atomic
helpers that drivers always know the state of the crtc. Again I only did
this because I didn't want to buy hw&test it for all the drivers which got
this wrong.

Maybe we need an EXPORT_SYMBOL_BROKEN for this .... btw the kerneldoc of
the functions you're called do explain that this is not as easy as it
seems. That's also something you throw under the rug here.
