I'm not going to fix up other people's drivers completely, just enough to
hopefully not break them. If arc also blocks vblank interrupts with the go
bit, then doing this in _begin is correct. Either way it needs hw-specific
knowledge to asses whether it's correct, since doing the vblank event
stuff in _flush is also racy without some prevention.
