Let's be consistent and call this intel_fb_flip_complete. I am happy
with the slight confusion between intel_fb and
i915_frontbuffer_tracking, since they are related and it is easy enough
to make the conceptual leap that only the fb that are on the scanout
(ala frontbuffers) need to be tracked - but we only every need to track
fbs...
