The reasoning was that DE_{LOW,HIGH} and
FLAG_PIXDATA_DRIVE_{POS,NEG}EDGE were the only bus_flags taken into
account by the crtc logic, so anything else is simply ignored. This was
definitely wrong since the driver supports at least one of the VSYNC
polarity (perhaps both if there's a way to configure it that's not
hooked-up yet).

So I guess figuring out the default VSYNC polarity and accepting the
according DISPLAY_FLAGS_SYNC_XXXEDGE flag is what makes most sense here.

Boris
