I don't think the current behaviour after detecting a sync lost flood is
really good for ver2 either. The flood is an indication of an error
situation on LCDC IP and the picture on the screen may be corrupted.
Simply turning off the interrupt does not make the problem (specifically
the screen corruption) to go away.

I have a patch for an alternative approach that turns off the display
and resets the LCDC and turns it back on again. It fixes the sync lost
flood and the screen corruption (usually shifting to right and rolling
over to left hand side). According to my experiments the toggling of
raster to off and back on again does not fix the the flood or the the
screen corruption.

I think it is about time for me the send my sync lost flood patch
forward. Then you could extend it to work also on rev1 LCDC.

Best regards,
Jyri
