If we accumulate unpin tasks because we are pageflipping faster than the system can schedule its workers, we can effectively create a pin-leak. The solution taken here is to limit the number of unpin tasks we have per-crtc and to flush those outstanding tasks if we accumulate too many. This should prevent any jitter in the normal case, and also prevent the hang if we should run too fast. Note: It is important that we switch from the system workqueue to our own dev_priv->wq since all work items on that queue are guaranteed to only need the dev->struct_mutex and not any modeset resources. For otherwise if we have a work item ahead in the queue which needs the modeset lock (like the output detect work used by both polling or hpd), this work and so the unpin work will never execute since the pageflip code already holds that lock. Unfortunately there's no lockdep support for this scenario in the workqueue code.
