I've forgotten to mention (I think so at least) that I'd like to have a
new kms_flip subtest which alternates vblank events with longer hrtimer
sleeps and still enables all the precise vblank counter/ts checks we have.
That should give us tons of flip-flopping of the vblank counter.
After all videos run at 25fps, so are about the worst case for this (since
the enable vblank for the 1 frame vblank wait and the for the pageflip,
disabling it each time in between) and we very much don't want to fail
this.
Bonus points if you add a 2nd thread which races against the first one for
added fun (in a 2nd subtest).
