The psr work only has a 100 ms timer, so won't catch too much really. And
we really can't call psr_match_conditions from the work again due to
locking inversion (once locking is added).

I agree that this change here breaks a few things, but the problem is that
I don't see a way to smoothly transition from your current scheme, which
mostly works due to massive amounts of invalidation as long as anything is
going on, to the new precise frontbuffer tracking. Smashing everything
into the final patch feels wrong, too.

If you're too worried about such issues I can merge more patches, but I
really have no idea how to split up the last psr patch to switch over to
invalidate/flush.
