hmm, yeah, that is a bit cleaner.. but this patch is already on
msm-next, maybe I'll add a patch on top to change it

I did dig out a hub/keyboard/mouse for the one mtk device I have to
see how it behaves with cursor updates.. the fps drops are pretty
bad.. roughly the same as they were with msm prior to the current
"defer the flush bits" scheme.  Maybe I'm just more picky than others.

Better helper support for this sort of hw would be useful, since I
think it is not uncommon.  (At least omap is similar, I didn't really
look at mtk/rockchip.)  If I had a clone to handle the display side of
things, my clone would work on that ;-)
