Subject is a bit confusing since you say uapi, but this is just the
internal prep work. Dropping UAPI fixes that. With that fixed:

Two more optional comments below, feel free to adapt or ignore. I'll wait
for Michel's r-b before merging either way.

Minor bikeshed: Since you pass the requested vblank number explicit, mabye
also pass the user_data explicit and remove the vblwait struct from the
parameter list? Restricts the old uapi cruft a bit.

return near + (int32_s) ((uint32_t)wide - near) ?
But then it took me way too long to think about this one, so maybe leave
it at that.
