I think I've fixed these up.

So - if this line, instead of reading !pipe->configured was:

Then we don't need to update the flag, or access the pipe internals.

So summarising my inlines above...

Yes, currently this patch is modifying a flag based on the hardware state to
know when to apply the current cached configuration to the next outgoing display
list.

We don't need to have a flag (or the cross-object pollution) because I believe
we can use the pipe->state status to tell us the exact information we need.
(when the pipeline has stopped, and thus needs to have the routing and stream
information sent to hardware)

I'll try it out - and hopefully send a v8... that I'm happy with :D
