No, there is a need.  Cursor updates (when running qxl with other ui

Right, that's why my patch checks if there are "any other
display listener requires refresh"

Also we can already adjust the wakeup rate, we only need to use it,
there is no need for a new hook.

I think it is cleaner to have different path for refresh rate and disabling refresh,

following the current code.

Alternative patches will come in a moment, please test.  I still a high
number of wakeups but most likely due to my spice-server being
unpatched.

Yes, please try with the RFC patch "remove guest-side timestamping" I sent earlier (your review there would be useful to)
