What's the advantage of that? We should add a
DRM_MODE_OBJ_SET_PROPERTIES call if we want to accelerate things,
instead of adding huge payloads.

I really think we should define one property for each color-correction
interface. I cannot see any downside of that except that we should add
DRM_MODE_OBJ_SET_PROPERTIES. But afaik that's already the plan for
atomic-modesetting, right?

Thanks
