Small clarification: These are the corrected limits of TRM rev. 1. In TRM rev.
0 the limits are incorrectly specified as 6 MHz to 12 MHz.

I understand.

Extending the samsung_dsim_driver_data sounds reasonable. There are already
other frequency limits specified. I will implement this in v2.

If samsung,pll-clock-frequency is set, the driver will neither check nor
update the pll_clk, but assume that the clocks are configured correctly. Thus,
the author of the device tree is responsible for selecting and configuring
valid clocks.

I observed that if I set pll_clk to any fixed value for different modes, the
clock framework may use a different clock rate depending on what is possible.
This may result in a reference clock that uses a fractional divider to get the
pll_clk_rate or cannot exactly produce the hs_clock. These situations cause
sync issues on the display.

Checking, if the current pll_clk_rate would involve the pix_clk, the hs_clock,
and the parent of the pll_clk. It may be possible, but I don't see a problem
with calculating a suitable pll_clk_rate, updating the pll_clk, and then
configuring the PLL to generate the hs_clock.
