During the hackfest in Brno, it was mentioned that a commit which re-sets the
same FB_ID could actually have an effect with VRR: It could trigger scanout of
the next frame before vertical blank has reached its maximum duration. Some
kind of mechanism is required for this in order to allow user space to perform
low frame rate compensation.
I believe the documentation already addresses that sending redundant
information may not lead to the desired behavior during an async flip.
Do you think adding a note about using the same FB_ID would be helpful?
