Current implementation of event handling assumes that vblank interrupt is always called at the right time. It is not true, it can be delayed due to various reasons. As a result different races can happen. The patch fixes the issue by using hardware frame counter present in DECON to serialize vblank and commit completion events.

This comparison isn't safe WRT the counter value returned by decon_get_frame_count wrapping around. If it goes all the way up to 0xffffffff before wrapping around to zero, it can be handled e.g. by
if ((s32)(frm - ctx->frame_id) > 0)
otherwise it gets a bit more complicated.
