Consider the following scenario:
1. nonblocking enable crtc
2. wait for the event
3. nonblocking disable crtc
On i915 this can lead to a spurious -EBUSY from step 3 on
account of non-enabled planes getting the fake_commit in step 1
and we don't complete the fake_commit-> flip_done until
drm_atomic_helper_commit_hw_done() which can happen a long
time after the flip event was sent out.
This will become somewhat easy to hit on SKL+ once we start
to add all the planes for the crtc to every modeset commit
for the purposes of forcing a watermark register programming
[1].
To make the race a little less pronounced let's complete
fake_commit->flip_done after drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done().
For the single crtc case this should make the race quite
theoretical, assuming drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done()
actually has to wait for the real commit flip_done. In case
the real commit flip_done gets completed singificantly before
drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done(), or we are dealing with
multiple crtcs whose vblanks don't line up nicely the race still
exists.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
