This update will also invalidate existing shader caches.
Some of these features (visibility buffer and surface sync) do not work yet with double buffer, you need to use native buffer or page table.
Everything was only tested on a Poco F3 (because that's the only device I own), so I can't make any guarantee about other GPUs sorry.
I strongly recommend using turnip drivers on Adreno devices if you can, I'm having a lot of issues with the default drivers.
