[PATCH v2 11/19] drm: Add dev->vblank_disable_immediate flag

[ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com]

From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com>

Add a flag to drm_device which will cause the vblank code to bypass the
disable timer and always disable the vblank interrupt immediately when
the last reference is dropped.

v2: Add some notes about the flag to the kernel doc
