The deferred-I/O worker then performs the dirty-fb update. The fbdev emulation will initialize deferred I/O for all drivers that require damage updates. It is therefore a valid assumption that the deferred-I/O worker is present. It would be possible to perform the damage handling directly from within the write operation. But doing this could increase the overhead of the write or interfere with a concurrently scheduled deferred-I/O worker. Instead, scheduling the deferred-I/O worker with its regular delay of 50 ms removes load off the write operation and allows the deferred-I/O worker to handle multiple write operations that arrived during the delay time window.

Or at least that's the reason why we have the damage worker in the first place.
That is badly worded. The comment means that the worker does not have to be scheduled immediately. I'll change that.
So this comment here needs to go, and the functions need to make it clear in their names that that they queue/schedule the flush.
fb_deferred_io_schedule_flush() seems like the most expressive name.The current name came from glFlush() and glFinish(), where the former only schedules a flushand the letter really waits before returning.

Also not sure whether you want to split out the fbdev part or not, imo overkill.
