oops, the condition here is mistakenly inverted, it was meant to bail
if there is more than a single CRTC

hmm, I suppose this depends on whether the hw actually has separate
irq's for frame-done and vblank (and whether the driver
differentiates).. and if the display controller is doing some
buffering, the point at which it wants to flip could be a bit earlier
still.  Maybe we just want a kms driver provided offset for how early
it wants the deadline relative to vblank?
