I guess there's actually another problem with this here - we won't have 
the actual dm_state->freesync_config.state until the commit following 
this one since it gets calculated below this transition handler.

We need this handler to trigger before the new framebuffer address is 
written but after these parameters are calculated.

So this needs a v3 or another patch in the series that shifts the 
calculation of config.state before this.

While it's probably sufficient to just reuse the block:

	if (new_crtc_state->vrr_supported &&
	    config.min_refresh_in_uhz &&
	    config.max_refresh_in_uhz) {
		config.state = new_crtc_state->base.vrr_enabled ?
			VRR_STATE_ACTIVE_VARIABLE :
			VRR_STATE_INACTIVE;
	} else {
		config.state = VRR_STATE_UNSUPPORTED;
	}

the problem is config.state could still technically be modified within 
mod_freesync_build_vrr_params I think.

So it's probably best to shift everything up to and including 
mod_freesync_build_vrr_params(...) from within 
update_freesync_state_on_stream(...) earlier, either in atomic check or 
in commit tail in another loop.

While I prefer the first approach, it's a little bit complicated. The 
get_freesync_config_for_crtc looks like the right place to put this, but 
that function would have to be moved. The problem is that

if (!(enable && aconnector && new_crtc_state->enable &&
	      new_crtc_state->active))

Won't be true if we're disabling a CRTC at the same time we're disabling 
VRR. The reset_freesync_config_for_crtc function would cover this but it 
doesn't actually touch the freesync_config - but I think it's safe to do 
so, since the check above will be true if the stream still exists.
