Magic numbers aren't great.
We can get those straight from the register definitions:
REG_FIELD_GET(XELPD_VRR_CTL_VRR_GUARDBAND_MASK,
XELPD_VRR_CTL_VRR_GUARDBAND_MASK)
REG_FIELD_GET(VRR_CTL_PIPELINE_FULL_MASK, VRR_CTL_PIPELINE_FULL_MASK)
or perhaps
REG_FIELD_GET(XELPD_VRR_CTL_VRR_GUARDBAND_MASK, ~0)
REG_FIELD_GET(VRR_CTL_PIPELINE_FULL_MASK, ~0)
to be a bit less repetitive.
Hmm, yeah I like that second form since it seems harder
to screw up the masks that way. I suppose we could even
formalize this sort of stuff into a REG_FIELD_MAX() macro...

No one should be calling this in that case.

You are missing intel_vrr_extra_vblank_delay() here.
To reduce the clutter I'd pull the max guardband (in terms
of the vblank length) calculation into a separate function:
intel_vrr_max_guardband()
{
return vmin - vdisplay - extra - scl;
}
Or maybe call it something like intel_vrr_max_vblank_guardband().
And then we could have a
intel_vrr_max_guardband()
{
return min(intel_vrr_max_vblank_guardband(),
intel_vrr_max_hw_guardband());
}
to give the final number.

I think the initial guardband value here we could change to be
simply 'vmin - crtc_vdisplay' (until we start to optimize it).
That way all the hw details and whatnot will be handled by
intel_vrr_max_guardband().
So in the end this could be just
guardband = min(vmin - crtc_vdisplay,
intel_vrr_max_guardband());
