Hm, where are we conservative with our estimates? Could we just wait for
req->head instead? And I don't see what's been implemented wrongly with
postfix.

Looking at

commit a71d8d94525e8fd855c0466fb586ae1cb008f3a2

    drm/i915: Record the tail at each request and use it to estimate the head

->postfix does get updated where ->tail was, Nick just renamed it from
->tail to ->postfix since execlist used ->tail with a different meaning.

Or do I miss something?

Unrelated change and there's indeed only 2 dvo plls ever on gen2.
