Well that's an entirely different reason, and needs to be recorded in the commit log that disabling/enabling vblank is too expensive and why. Also would be good to record that windows does the same. I'm also not entirely sure this is a good interface, so some thoughts/question: - is the issue only with psr, meaning that if we switch the panel to a different crtc, do we need to update the off delay. - there's still the question of why vblank_immediate_disable resulted in stuttering, is that the same bug? I think for consistency it'd be best if we enable immediate vblank disabling everywhere (for maximum testing), and then apply the 2 frame delay workaround only where needed explicitly. Otherwise if there's other issues than DMUB being slow, they might be mostly hidden and become really hard to track down when they show up. - I think an interface to set the right values in lockstep with the vblank on/off state would be best, so maybe a special drm_crtc_vblank_on_config that takes additional parameters?
