Good news! We fixed this bug 7 months ago.

commit 52e68630d13f9668f8f4dd6978fa41039bacfaf6

    drm/i915: Fix offset page-flips on i965+
    
    i965 uses the Display Registers to compute the offset from the display
    base so the new base does not need adjusting when flipping. The older
    chipsets use a fence to access the display and so do perceive the
    surface as linear and have a single base register which is reprogrammed
    using the flip.
