Yeah, so I suppose that's another race, since we aren't necessarily
guaranteed to be enabling/disabling the crtcs in the order this patch
assumes.

I think we can probably handle this better by doing this up a level
where we have a more global view of which vops are enabled/disabled
and the order in which they will be processed.

I'm working on this now, stay tuned.
