Oh and the bigger problem is that we can't actually guarantee atomic 
updates without the vblank evade currently. I can't recall if BXT has
the lock bit already somewhere. If it does we should probably start
using it. Oh and we also have to make sure we sample the frame counter
_after_ the lock has been released to make sure we do the necessary
vblank waits and whatnot after the flip has been commited to the
hardware.
