And the problem is indeed the kernel advertising
DRM_CAP_TIMESTAMP_MONOTONIC but instead of using CLOCK_MONOTONIC it is
really using CLOCK_REALTIME. This confirms kernel commit 37efe80ce85f is
the fix, but it may well have some prerequisite commits we haven't fully
worked out...

I'll see if I can hack around it, but the simplicity of the mistake in
the vmwgfx kernel code makes me think we should be preferring a kernel
fix still.
