If multiple flips become ready for the same MSC, we would previously execute them all sequentially, one per MSC for sync flips. This could result in an unbounded flip queue and corresponding memory consumption. With implicit sync, leave the mailbox handling to the compositor for async flips though. v2: * Use present_vblank_rec::sync_flip.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.
