On i965gm we need to adjust max_vblank_count dynamically
depending on whether the TV encoder is used or not. To
that end add a per-crtc max_vblank_count that takes
precedence over its device wide counterpart. The driver
can now call drm_crtc_set_max_vblank_count() to configure
the per-crtc value before calling drm_vblank_on().
Also looks like there was some discussion about exynos needing
similar treatment.
v2: Drop the extra max_vblank_count!=0 check for the
WARN(last!=current), will take care of it in i915 code (Daniel)
WARN_ON(!inmodeset) (Daniel)
WARN_ON(dev->max_vblank_count)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
