Subject: [PATCH V2 0/4] clk: imx: Improve imx8mm/imx8mn LCDIF clocks

Both the i.MX8M Mini and Nano have a video_pll which can be used
to source a clock which feeds the lcdif interface. This interface
currently fixes video_pll and divides down the clock feeding LCDIF.
However, when connected to an HDMI bridge chip that supports a
variety of video resolutions and refresh rates, the only settings
that properly sync are ones that evenly divide from the video_pll_out
clock.

This series adds the ability for the clk-compolsite-8m to
request a better parent clock rate if the proper clock flag is
enable and sets that flag in the corresponding imx8mm and
imx8mn video_pll clocks to increase the number of resolutions
and refresh rates timings that the LCDIF can produce.

This also has a side benefit of allowing the video-pll to run
at a lower clock speed which can potentially save some power
depending on the requested resolution and refresh rate.

V2: Split off the new imx8m_clk_hw_composite_flags definition
into its own patch and re-order to fix build error.

Subject: [PATCH V2 1/4] clk: imx: composite-8m: Add support to determine_rate

Similar to imx/clk-composite-93 and imx/clk-divider-gate, the
imx8m_clk_composite_divider_ops can support determine_rate.
Without this the parent clocks are set to a fixed value, and
if a consumer needs a slower reate, the clock is divided, but
the division is only as good as the parent clock rate.

With this added, the system can attempt to adjust the parent rate
if the proper flags are set which can lead to a more precise clock
value.

Subject: [PATCH V2 3/4] clk: imx8mm: Let IMX8MM_CLK_LCDIF_PIXEL set parent rate

By default the display pixel clock needs to be evenly divide
down from 594MHz which rules out a significant number of
resolution and refresh rates.
The current clock tree looks something like:

video_pll1 594000000
video_pll1_bypass 594000000
video_pll1_out 594000000
lcdif_pixel 148500000

Now that composite-8m supports determine_rate, we can allow
lcdif_pixel to set the parent rate which then switches
every clock in the chain to a new frequency when lcdif_pixel
cannot evenly divide from video_pll1_out.

Should drivers/clk/imx/clk-imx8mp.c also be adjusted in the same way?

Thanks!

The LVDS and the DSI clocks are shared from a common parent, so I am
not sure of the impact of this. I have an IMX8MP and I have it
working with DSI->HDMI and the LVDS, but I was waiting on the DSI
series from Jagan to get applied first and I wanted to make sure this
series gets accepted before I started work on the 8MP.

I will be traveling to Thailand for the next 3 weeks, so I'm hoping to
review the 8MP when I return.
