Hi Sumera,

Thanks for working to enable it.

We've briefly discussed on irc that we could go ahead without covering
crc-based tests. However, we should not introduce errors in the driver
when trying to set crc source. 
For this, we need to avoid that vblank_get/put calls in
vkms_set_crc_source (vkms_composer.c) Can you check it, please?

Is this change necessary to enable vblank-less mode? Or is it treating
another problem?
