How about mandating that drivers expose all the properties, except that for HW that doesn't allow the property to be updated from userspace it will be marked read-only. And the driver can export in the blob whatever coefficients match the fixed pipeline stage. If such information is not available, maybe we can provide in the DRM core some example or "standard" coefficients?
