Not sure if this opinion offers an option: I assume when we say "refuse
the async flip", we mean return a failure on but dont change the HW
state... this would mean the user observes a frozen-and-corrupted-
looking screen since all buffers in the app's swapchain would be
encrypted and invalid at once (the typical case) - including the
current frontbuffer. Along the same lines, if the app + compositor was
paused/idle with no async flips coming in momentarily, a pxp session
invalidation event would then cause the same symptom. Perhaps we need a
uevent drm-master can hook onto specifically for the pxp-teardown so
that drm-master would be able to replace the current front buffer so
long as the session hasnt been re-established. Although this might be
big enough to be seperate patch series after this?
