In VRR mode, keep track of the vblank count of the last completed pageflip in amdgpu_crtc->last_flip_vblank, as recorded in the pageflip completion handler after each completed flip. Use that count to prevent mmio programming a new pageflip within the same vblank in which the last pageflip completed, iow. to throttle pageflips to at most one flip per video frame, while at the same time allowing to request a flip not only before start of vblank, but also anywhere within vblank. The old logic did the same, and made sense for regular fixed refresh rate flipping, but in vrr mode it prevents requesting a flip anywhere inside the possibly huge vblank, thereby reducing framerate in vrr mode instead of improving it, by delaying a slightly delayed flip requests up to a maximum vblank duration + 1 scanout duration. This would limit VRR usefulness to only help applications with a very high GPU demand, which can submit the flip request before start of vblank, but then have to wait long for fences to complete. With this method a flip can be both requested and - after fences have completed - executed, ie. it doesn't matter if the request (amdgpu_dm_do_flip()) gets delayed until deep into the extended vblank due to cpu execution delays. This also allows clients which want to regulate framerate within the vrr range a much more fine-grained control of flip timing, a feature that might be useful for video playback, and is very useful for neuroscience/vision research applications. In regular non-VRR mode, retain the old flip submission behavior. This to keep flip scheduling for fullscreen X11/GLX OpenGL clients intact, if they use the GLX_OML_sync_control extensions glXSwapBufferMscOML(, ..., target_msc,...) function with a specific target_msc target vblank count. glXSwapBuffersMscOML() or DRI3/Present PresentPixmap() will not flip at the proper target_msc for a non-zero target_msc if VRR mode is active with this patch. They'd often flip one frame too early. However, this limitation should not matter much in VRR mode, as scheduling based on vblank counts is pretty futile/unusable under variable refresh duration anyway, so no real extra harm is done.

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.
