So actually I started digging into the issues and ended up with a load
of invalidation fixes for TCX24 exposed by the thread-safe work, along
with some good clean ups.

I'll send through what I have shortly, however now that patchset has
expanded I think it's better to remove the TCX/CG3 patches from your
queue and just include the conversation to thread-safe routines.

Here's what your vga-fixes branch looks like rebased upon my patchset:
