Subject: [PATCH v4 3/4] drm/vc4: Detect and ignore underruns caused by out-of-sync dlists

When the pipeline is reconfigured with a different mode, changes take
effect immediately for the CRTC and encoder while the HVS takes some
time to switch the active display list. This results in a period of
time where the pipeline is out of sync, that is very likely to cause
an underrun to be reported. Because the underrun is not related to the
new configuration, reporting it to userspace is a false positive.

Since this only concerns the first frame and we have no immediate fix
to avoid this situation, detect and work around it.

A helper is introduced to return whether the enabled display channels
have their display list in sync. This hint is set when unmasking the
underrun interrupt and it is updated in the interrupt itself.

With that, underrun reports that happen when the display list is out of
sync are ignored. The interrupt is kept enabled so that proper underrun
indications can be pick up as soon as the new display list takes over.
