I'm not sure that it's something we need to support. .mode_set_base() is
explicitly used only for cases where the framebuffer configuration
doesn't change. That is, only in cases where the only thing that changes
is the physical address of the framebuffer to be displayed.
The current case where one framebuffer is used as scanout for both
outputs isn't something that page-flipping can support. Page-flipping is
always per-CRTC because typically each CRTC would run at a different
frequency (or even if both ran at the same frequency the VBLANK is very
unlikely to coincide anyway).
So an application that wants to support page-flipping on two outputs
also needs to take care to set them up with different framebuffers, in
which case what you're describing here can't really happen.
