Let me know if you think of other things to add.

Should we refer to ALLOW_MODESET in the MODE_ID docs?

+/**
+ * DOC: standard CRTC properties
+ *
+ * DRM CRTCs have a few standardized properties:
+ *
+ * ACTIVE:
+ * 	Atomic property for setting the power state of the CRTC. When set to 1 the
+ * 	CRTC will actively display content. When set to 0 the CRTC will be powered
+ * 	off. There is no expectation that user-space will reset CRTC resources like
+ * 	the mode and planes when setting ACTIVE to 0.
+ * MODE_ID:
+ * 	Atomic property for setting the CRTC display timings. The value is the ID
+ * 	of a blob containing the DRM mode info. To disable the CRTC, user-space
+ * 	must set this property to 0.
