Hi Hans,

Commit 2408898e3b6c ("staging: vboxvideo: Add page-flip support") only
calls vbox_crtc_do_set_base() on page-flips, but despite that function's
name it only pins the new fb, unpins the old fb and sets
vbox_crtc->fb_offset. It does not program the hardware to scan out at the
new vbox_crtc->fb_offset value.

Has that always been the case of vbox_crtc_do_set_base()? Or was
there a recent commit that changed that behavior?

I tested this patch using a Weston EGL mock navigation test app around
4.14 time-frame, that exercises page flip and it was scanning out the
new fb, but maybe what I was looking at was a scan-out of an old/now stale
fb from a previous page-flip.

In any case thanks for fixing.

Steve

This was causing only every other frame (assuming page-flipping between 2
buffers) to be shown since we kept scanning out of the old (now unpinned!)
buffer.

This commit fixes this by adding code to vbox_crtc_page_flip() to tell
the hardware to scanout from the new fb_offset.
