[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/3] drm/i915: Allow arbitrary refresh rates with VRR eDP panels

[Ville Syrjala]

From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala at linux.intel.com>

If the panel supports VRR it must be capable of accepting
timings with arbitrary vblank length, within the valid VRR
range. Use that fact to allow the user to request any refresh
rate they like. We simply pick the next highest fixed mode
from our list, and adjust the vblank to get the desired refresh
rate in the end.

Of course currently everything to do with the vrefresh is
using 1Hz precision, so might not be exact. But we can improve
that in the future by just upping our vrefresh precision.
