I think of a use for sending an empty clip: where you don't want to
push any new pixel data, but you do want to be sure that the pipeline
has been flushed.

The change I would suggest here would be

	dirty = clip->x1 <= clip->x2 && clip->y1 <= clip->y2

as the bug is not the empty rectangle but the invalid one. However, that
may be overkill, and none of the backends care about the empty rect!

But, indeed, we do not validate the incoming dirtyfb either.
