But why does your HW use CRTC 1 in the first place.
Could be eg. the enabled outputs can't be driven with CRTC 0.
I guess what you want to do is pick the first crtc from modesets[]
which is enabled. Or perhaps even "pick the Nth enabled crtc from
modesets[] based on the ioctl argument".
The enable-status of each CRTC could change later on, which might lead
to problems.
Sound like a locking issue if someone is changing the configuration
at the same time we're trying to do the vblank wait here.
I mean that the connected outputs could change at a later point or we
could have multiple CRTCs in use. Today, someone in #intel-gfx reported
a problem with panning if multiple CRTCs are in use.
Therefore picking a CRTC freely could be a problem. Let's say we
configure modes from one CRTC, but later wait/pan/flush with another
CRTC. I would not trust this to work correctly.
Hence, my suggestion is to select a primary CRTC during the fbdev
client's probe and use it for all later operations until the next probe
happens. All other CRTCs would mirror the primary one.

Picking the one CRTC/output with the lowest spec and
mirroring it to the others might work. This CRTC would then be the one
to wait for.
