It takes an unsigned value. This happens not to blow up on 64-bit
architectures, but it does on 32-bit, causing
drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos() to calculate totally bogus
timestamps for vblank events. Which in turn causes e.g. gnome-shell to
hang after a DPMS off cycle with current xf86-video-ati Git.
[airlied: regression introduced in drm: use monotonic time in drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos]
