Yes, that would be perfect. So instead of the drm_crtc_arm_vblank_event
you put the event into a driver-private slot where the irq handler can
pick it up and send it out using drm_crtc_send_vblank_event.

Two important details:
- You need to arm the event this way before the hw can fire this special
  interrupt, so probably somewhere in atomic_begin.
- the drm_crtc_send_vblank_event must be called after
  drm_crtc_handle_vblank, because otherwise the vblank timestamp isn't
  properly updated.
