Yup, and that's why I acked it in the first place. It doesn't reduce
GPU/CPU parallelism and it's not new semantics for the damage
extension. If the post-op reporting worked correctly, the only
difference would be in the case where a damage event overflows the
clients protocol buffer. And in that case, the only difference would
be that the driver gets to see the rendering request before X flushes
the buffer. There's really nothing to discuss.
