Currently, wait_event_timeout() in drm_wait_one_vblank() uses a 100ms
timeout. Under heavy scheduling pressure or rare delayed vblank
handling, this can trigger WARNs unnecessarily.

Increase the timeout to 1000ms to reduce spurious WARNs, while still
catching genuine issues.

Thanks a lot.

Gentle ping on this patch. Please let me know if there are any issues with the patch, or if it requires any changes or further testing.


v2:
  - Dropped unnecessary in-code comment (suggested by Thomas Zimmermann)
  - Removed else branch, only log timeout case

v3:
  - Replaced drm_dbg_kms()/manual logging with drm_err() (suggested by Ville Syrjälä)   - Removed unnecessary curr = drm_vblank_count() (suggested by Thomas Zimmermann)   - Fixed commit message wording ("invalid userspace calls" → "delayed vblank handling")

v4:
  - Keep the original drm_WARN() to catch genuine kernel issues
  - Increased timeout from 100ms → 1000ms to reduce spurious WARNs (suggested by Thomas Zimmermann)
