We already have userspace making us of the CRTC vrr_enabled property to
enable VRR for the CRTC like in case of full screen gaming.

This can already be done through:
drm_atomic_crtc_set_property call. Why do we need additonal helpers
for setting the same per CRTC property?

This is a default CRTC property so it will be created annd attached for
CRTC as per the DRM doc:
"VRR_ENABLED":
 *      Default &drm_crtc boolean property that notifies the driver that the
 *      content on the CRTC is suitable for variable refresh rate presentation.
 *      The driver will take this property as a hint to enable variable
 *      refresh rate support if the receiver supports it, ie. if the
 *      "vrr_capable" property is true on the &drm_connector object. The
 *      vertical front porch duration will be extended until page-flip or
 *      timeout when enabled.

Then we can use the atomic_crtc_set/get_property helpers to set it
Am I missing some other use case here?
