drm/gud: Enable synchronous flushing by default
gud has a module parameter that controls whether framebuffer flushing
happens synchronously during the commit or asynchronously in a worker.
GNOME before version 3.38 handled all displays in the same rendering loop.
This lead to gud slowing down the refresh rate for a faster monitor. This
has now been fixed so lets change the default.
The plan is to remove async flushing in the future. The code is now
structured in a way that makes it easy to do this.
