We probably want to make it clear that this is a content hint. Maybe something like:

 * "vrr_enabled":
 *	Default &drm_crtc boolean property that notifies the driver that the
 *	content on the CRTC is suitable for variable refresh presentation.
 *	The driver will take that as a hint to enable variable refresh rate
 *	if the receiver supports it, i.e. the "vrr_capable" property on the
 *	&drm_connector_object is true.
