Subject: drm/nouveau/kms/nv04-nv40: fix pageflip events via special case.
From: Mario Kleiner <mario.kleiner.de@xxxxxxxxx>
commit af4870e406126b7ac0ae7c7ce5751f25ebe60f28 upstream.
Cards with nv04 display engine can't reliably use vblank
counts and timestamps computed via drm_handle_vblank(), as
the function gets invoked after sending the pageflip events.
Fix this by defaulting to the old crtcid = -1 fallback path
on <= NV-50 cards, and only using the precise path on NV-50
and later.
