This function is useful for gen2 intel devices which have no frame counter, but need a way to determine the current vblank count without racing with the vblank interrupt handler.
intel_pipe_update_start checks if no vblank interrupt will occur during vblank evasion, but cannot check whether the vblank handler has run to completion. This function uses the timestamps to determine when the last vblank has happened, and interpolates from there.
Changes since v1:
- Take vblank_time_lock and don't use drm_vblank_count_and_time.

It's useful on everything if you actually want to trust the software counter to not be stale.

Do we have a user in mind that would care about the timestamp?
No, I guess allowing a NULL pointer for tv_ret might help.
Or just killing the entire parameter.
