If I remember correctly, it's for other threads other than the explorer's main thread to see the new display mode immediately. Without it, a rather large delay is causing tests to fail.
I see, I think this should not be necessary anymore since !6573, the new display mode will be written to the registry and other processes/threads should get their cache invalidate immediately.
Later on, when the XRandR events are processed the cache might get invalidated again but should end up with the same display settings.
