Yes, it's all about finding the crtc.

virtio wouldn't be upset.

It's a pointless exercise though to first disable the output, just to
re-enable it the next moment with the new page-flipped framebuffer.  So
I guess I should look at the active_only thing nevertheless.

Grr, mail is not in my dri-devel folder.  Guess that is the <censored>
"avoid-duplicates" mailman option at work.

Feel free to just add the r-b too.  Or I'll send it for the next version
of the series.
