Instead of waiting for 50ms, just wait until the next vblank, since
it's the minimum requirement.
This moves PC7 residency on my specific BDW machine running Cinnamon
from 60-70% to 84-89%. Without FBC, I get 20-25%. I'm using a
3200x1800 eDP panel. Notice: this was the case when the patch was
originally proposed, the order of the FBC patches changed since then,
so the actual numbers might be slightly different now.
v2:
- Rebase after changing the patch order.
- Update the commit message.
