Can you pls add some words with how this DERRMR write will interact
with scanline waits from SNA? I think just a few words to explain how
switching from scanline waits and blits to pageflips and back would be
good (even though I don't really expect that to happen often,
especially now that we have the buffer age extension and friends).
