Afaik the fundamental race of enabling the vblank is still there, so
this is just duct-tape. And our hw has the required registers (on
gen5+ at least) to close this race for real and abolish all "disable
vblank irq later to paper over races and smooth things out). Hence I
think we should dtrt and so
