This seems like the wrong place to do it, in that it will generate one
flip event per plane, rather than one per CRTC. So this should
probably be done in the overall atomic_commit hook I think.

Also, without some kind of delay, this means that we'll generate
flip-complete events immediately, which will cause compositors like
Weston to render infinitely fast. It's probably worth looking at what
happened when this came up with Bochs - I'm not sure if we fake a 16ms
delay, or refuse to do async modesets, or what.

Cheers,
Daniel
