Subject: [PATCH 4.12 19/27] drm/vmwgfx: Fix F26 Wayland screen update issue

4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sinclair Yeh <syeh@...are.com>

commit 021aba761f2a6c12158afb9993524c300c01fae2 upstream.

vmwgfx currently cannot support non-blocking commit because when
vmw_*_crtc_page_flip is called, drm_atomic_nonblocking_commit()
schedules the update on a thread.  This means vmw_*_crtc_page_flip
cannot rely on the new surface being bound before the subsequent
dirty and flush operations happen.
