Oh, we should send the correct vrefresh value to the kernel; it's part
of the API after all. Having an integer vrefresh value isn't all that
useful anyways; we often end up with multiple
similar-but-not-quite-the-same modes that differ by less than 1Hz in
vrefresh.

But, removing VRefresh from the X server and then sending a
computed value to the kernel seems like a fine plan.

For now, we need to retain ABI in X, so using your existing plan which
computes the value to send to the kernel seems appropriate. That just
needs to be fixed to round the value rather than truncate and I think
we'll be set for 1.17 at least.
