It won't, __drm_atomic_helper_crtc_duplicate_state() memcpy's the state, so
the page flip flags will be copied to the new state until another legacy page
flip overwrites them.

The page flip flags are not state information. They describe an operation, not
a state. They're needed when performing the operation, but if we don't reset
them when it completes (at the latest when duplicating the state for the next
atomic commit, but possibly earlier) there's a risk that a driver will
mistakenly perform an async page flip during a later operation.
