The question is which behavior is correct? I have not found any clear
statement in the documentation, or drm core code.
I have guessed that since vblank event is used to signal end of scan-out
of buffer it should be called after scan-out of whole buffer - in case
of interlaced mode after scan-out of 2nd field.
Maybe my assumption is wrong, in such case this patch should be dropped
and mixer driver also should be fixed, but before doing that it would be
good to know for sure how it should be handled correctly.
