Mario Kleiner fdd1fe57c0 drm/amd/display: Rework vrr flip throttling for late vblank irq.
For throttling to work correctly, we always need a baseline vblank
count last_flip_vblank that increments at start of front-porch.

This is the case for drm_crtc_vblank_count() in non-VRR mode, where
the vblank irq fires at start of front-porch and triggers DRM core
vblank handling, but it is no longer the case in VRR mode, where
core vblank handling is done later, after end of front-porch.

Therefore drm_crtc_vblank_count() is no longer useful for this.
We also can't use drm_crtc_accurate_vblank_count(), as that would
screw up vblank timestamps in VRR mode when called in front-porch.

To solve this, use the cooked hardware vblank counter returned by
amdgpu_get_vblank_counter_kms() instead, as that one is cooked to
always increment at start of front-porch, independent of when
vblank related irq's fire.

This patch allows vblank irq handling to happen anywhere within
vblank of even after it, without a negative impact on flip
throttling, so followup patches can shift the vblank core
handling trigger point wherever they need it.

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.
