We wouldn't actually do the disable as long there's a reference still
held, so the timestamp should be fine in that case. And if there aren't
any references the timestamp shouldn't matter... I think. But it's
probably more clear to keep to the order you propose here anyway.

Oh, and now that I think about this stuff again, I start to wonder why
I made the disable actually update the seq/ts. If the interrupt is
currently enabled the seq/ts should be reasonably uptodate already
when we do disable the interrupt. Perhaps I was only thinking about
drm_vblank_off() when I made that change, or I decided that I didn't
want two different disable codepaths. Anyways, just an idea that
we might be able to make the vblank irq disable a little cheaper.
