We use the PAN ioctl to implement double-buffering for OSD0 graphic
redraws on DM355, to good effect (after some hacking in the driver to
get it to switch at the right vsync moment). We redraw a significant
portion of our graphics every frame (PAL SD resolution).

I don't know about 64xx but would guess it's similar.
