No "feel" improvement and the FPS effect doesn't display any obvious change
with KWIN_DRM_DISABLE_BUFFER_READABILITY_CHECKS set.

Last time I tried kdesrc-build the head-desk-banging went to a 9 on the Richter
scale but I can absolutely try building just Kwin with some modifications to
test some stuff. You're right that the asahi drivers don't yet support hardware
cursors, and I can note that I see refreshes at 30hz in the FPS plugin when I
move the mouse (that doesn't bring it any higher)
