Yes, I think so. It's not about the place (if it wrong/correct) it is
more about the PANIC mode itself. I'm curios about:
 1) Do you still see the flickering with this patch and without the
    "burst-size increase" patch?
 2) Do you still saw flickering after the "burst-size increase" patch
    applied and without this patch?

I had no 4K display therefore I'm asking, but with 1080P we didn't saw
any improvements without increasing the burst-size. My assumption was:
if the panic mode does work, than I don't have to increase the
burst-size.
