I suppose one could argue that maximum frame duration is the actual
deadline. Anything less is just moar fps, but not going to involve
stalling until vblank N+1, AFAIU

Probably something like end of previous frame's video.. might not be
_exactly_ correct (because some buffering involved), but OTOH on the
GPU side, I expect the driver to set a timer for a few ms or so before
the deadline. So there is some wiggle room.
