+	 * Allow for some rounding error of actual video timing by taking floor
+	 * of caps and request. Round the nominal refresh rate.
+	 *
+	 * Dividing will convert everything to units in Hz although input
+	 * variable name is in uHz!
+	 *
+	 * Also note, this takes care of rounding error on the nominal refresh
+	 * so by rounding error we only expect it to be off by a small amount,
+	 * such as < 0.1 Hz. i.e. 143.9xxx or 144.1xxx.
+	 *
+	 * Example 1. Caps    Min = 40 Hz, Max = 144 Hz
+	 *            Request Min = 40 Hz, Max = 144 Hz
+	 *                    Nominal = 143.5x Hz rounded to 144 Hz
+	 *            This function should allow this as valid request
+	 *
+	 * Example 2. Caps    Min = 40 Hz, Max = 144 Hz
+	 *            Request Min = 40 Hz, Max = 144 Hz
+	 *                    Nominal = 144.4x Hz rounded to 144 Hz
+	 *            This function should allow this as valid request
+	 *
+	 * Example 3. Caps    Min = 40 Hz, Max = 144 Hz
+	 *            Request Min = 40 Hz, Max = 144 Hz
+	 *                    Nominal = 120.xx Hz rounded to 120 Hz
+	 *            This function should return NOT valid since the requested
+	 *            max is greater than current timing's nominal
+	 *
+	 * Example 4. Caps    Min = 40 Hz, Max = 120 Hz
+	 *            Request Min = 40 Hz, Max = 120 Hz
+	 *                    Nominal = 144.xx Hz rounded to 144 Hz
+	 *            This function should return NOT valid since the nominal
