Hmm.. I've already written the pixel clock provider driver of the LS1028A and upstreamed..
So more resolutions will be support on LS1028A.
Thank you for the comments that which made me determined to get this done.

For this change, I would be remove this condition "if (mode->pixelclock == 594000000)"
And apply this change for all resolutions on LS1028A.

How do you think?
