These include the drm_connector 'vrr_capable' and the drm_crtc
'vrr_enabled' properties.

+/**
+ * DOC: Variable refresh properties
+ *
+ * Variable refresh rate control is supported via properties on the
+ * &drm_connector and &drm_crtc objects.
+ *
+ * "vrr_capable":
+ *	Optional &drm_connector boolean property that drivers should attach
+ *	with drm_connector_attach_vrr_capable_property() on connectors that
+ *	could support variable refresh rates. Drivers should update the
+ *	property value by calling drm_connector_set_vrr_capable_property().
+ *
+ *	Absence of the property should indicate absence of support.
+ *
+ * "vrr_enabled":
+ *	Default &drm_crtc boolean property that notifies the driver that the
+ *	variable refresh rate adjustment should be enabled for the CRTC.
+ *
+ *	Support for variable refresh rate will depend on the "vrr_capable"
+ *	property exposed on the &drm_connector object.
