I don't see a nice way to do this, it probably means we shouldn't do this at all..
Maybe have a function look at dev_priv->power_domains.domain_use_count[[POWER_DOMAIN_PIPE(pipe)] >= 1?
It's potentially racy but I don't see a nice way to check, apart from hoping we handle the drm vblank on/off
calls correctly.

The only other way I see is demidlayering vblank.
