CEA actually specifies an interlaced mode with even vtotal and

Note that interlaced modes with an even vtotal seem to be a fairly
recent invention. All modelines lore I could dig up with googling says
that vtotal for interlaced modes _needs_ to be odd. But the even
modelines in CEA are not a spec-bug, there's a figure in CEA-861-E
called "Figure 5 Special Interlaced Video Format Timing (Even Vtotal)"
that explains how it's supposed to work. Furthermore intel Bspec
explicitly mentions that both odd and even interlaced vtotal are
supported (VTOTAL register in the south display engine of PCH split
chips).

Ajax? I'd like your ack/review on this.

That |= 1 logic was just slavishy copied from the server's RANDR code, which afaict slavishly copied it from xfree86 4, and I think even that was copypasta from xfree86 3. I don't know what it was ever meant to do.
