This also happens when the framebuffer boundaries are "incorrect", eg
when flipping while the crtc is enabled. The driver doesn't handle it yet,
so working around it is made via toggling LCDC_RASTER_ENABLE as
you put in this change, it is worth noting because that's how modetest
for example can "seem" to work with v1 when handling SYNC_LOST
and is partly why the "vsynced page flipping" of modetest won't work
either with v1 ATM. I haven't looked at the different trees since early
september but my guess would be that nobody has reworked this yet.

Here you are leaving the RASTER_ENABLE bit set unconditionnally.
It is disabled in tilcdc_crtc_disable with the irqs on (for v2 to handle
the last vblank), if the controller loses sync in the window between
disabling it and disabling the irqs in tilcdc_crtc_disable it is likely to
be problematic for the next call to tilcdc_crtc_enable.
