Fixing bug: 39949, randr scale and cursor bounds

Hi there

When scaling a screen the cursor is getting jailed in an area that does not 
cover the entire size.

You can read more about the bug here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39949

The patch provided in that bug entry by Chris Wilson fixes it but apparently 
breaks keystone correction.

Some downstreams are patching xorg-server with that or similar patches.

Given how prominent hidpi is getting on laptops scaling external non-hidpi 
screens is becoming quite common.

Any ideas on the topic?

Thanks and sorry for spaming the list with a bug.
