MIXER on Exynos5 SoCs uses different synchronisation method than Exynos4
to update internal state (shadow registers).
Apparently the driver implements it incorrectly. The rule should be
as follows:
- do not request updating registers until previous request was finished,
  ie. MXR_CFG_LAYER_UPDATE_COUNT must be 0.
- before setting registers synchronisation on VSYNC should be turned off,
  ie. MXR_STATUS_SYNC_ENABLE should be reset,
- after finishing MXR_STATUS_SYNC_ENABLE should be set again.
The patch hopefully implements it correctly.
