That's a bit odd. Even if the mode originally doesn't have any
hsync/vsync flags intel_modeset_pipe_config() should give it some.
So I can't immediately see how we could manage to get there with
expected==0.

It's been a few months but IIRC I was just running xonotic when I
hit the problem. It was pretty good at hitting it. Prior to the fix
I had to rewrite PIPESTAT several times to make it through the
the-big-keybench demo. I don't recall anymore if I hit it with
anything else.
