I wanted to highlight all the bits a bit more, because this is a lot more
tricky than it looks. For correct ordering and avoiding races we can't do
what you suggested. Only after
drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_vblanks()
do we know that all subsequent queue_work will be for the _new_ state.
Only once that's done is flush_work() actually useful, before that we
might flush the work, and then right after the hrtimer that simulates
vblank queues it again. Every time you have a flush_work before cleaning
up the work structure the folling sequence must be obeyed, or it can go
wrong:
1. Make sure no one else can requeue the work anymore (in our case that's
done by a combination of first updating output->crc_state and then waiting
for the vblank to pass to make sure the hrtimer has noticed that change).
2. flush_work()
3. Actually clean up stuff (which isn't done here).
Doing the flush_work before we even completed the output->state update,
much less waited for the vblank to make sure that's happened, missed the
point.
