I'm not sure, I've looked into it, and most drivers will create those
properties and attached *after* running drm_connector_init.

If you're using drm_mode_create_tv_margin_properties, then the first
thing it does is to check whether that property has been created
already, so we're covered.

For drm_connector_attach_tv_margins_properties though, this will force
overwrite the value.

One thing I'm not really fond of either is that you would do this even
if the driver cannot support the margins at all.

Maybe we can put this into drm_connector_attach_tv_margins_properties?
