e-mail snafu, sent it too early by accident, and from a gmail web
interface which i'm apparently incapable of using properly...
The second fix should look like this:

if (!vblank->enabled &&
drm_get_last_vbltimestamp(dev, crtc, &tvblank, 0)) {
... We need to make sure timestamp queries work and are actually
locked to the vblank, otherwise we can't do that last update there in
vblank_disable_and_save().
With these two fixes or similar applied i'd be happy, otherwise it
will inflict pain and real bugs on real users.
thanks,
