The Cirrus cards have situations where unless you know the cards current
state you can't set a new state reliably. To make it more fun the registers

fbcon/KGIcon can help here providing all video control access goes through
its kernel interface. The moment you run a non fbcon/KGI X server yes

a matter of "slightly faster" v "slightly more kernel overhead/memory" by
user choice - which is the ideal solution
