> rtkit messages as communication with the DCP firmware for framebuffer
> swaps or input events are time critical so use WQ_HIGHPRI to prevent
> user space CPU load to increase latency.
> With kwin_wayland 6's explicit sync mode user space load was able to
> delay the IOMFB rtkit communication enough to miss vsync for surface
> swaps. Minimal test scenario is constantly resizing a glxgears
> Xwayland window.
