Hi,

I was investigating high latency for the display on my m2 macbook air
and traced it back to drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done() in our
custom dcp_atomic_commit_tail().

Looking closer at the asahi tree it turns out they switched back to
the generic drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail_rpm() in
 https://github.com/AsahiLinux/linux/commit/bd8ce96f6e76b98940352b18fe735a7943471ed7

I propose we do the same. With this the graphical interface feels noticably
snappier.

ok?
