Afaik, no one yet tracks damage on a backbuffer before a flip. But we
don't constrain the tests to backbuffer as we do need to exercise
frontbuffer rendering and iirc those tests all use set-domain. I don't
see any PSR/FBC testing using the dumb framebuffers... Or is the dumb
framebuffer purely a backbuffer + flip model?
