This PF flip stuff is a bit of a mystery. I'm not sure it exists on SNB
anymore. Some of the docs say that it's MBZ for SNB/IVB. Gen4/5 docs
say that DW3 must not be sent w/ async flips, and some SNB+ docs say
that it must not be sent with either sync or async flips.

Did you test this patch on actual hardware, and if so did it work as
expected? :)

I guess one would need to perform some empirical testing to figure out
what DW3 actually does.
