It looks like video_pll_out ultimately defined as a mux clock and
according to clk-mux.c, "* rate - rate is only affected by parent
switching. No clk_set_rate support" Since disp_pixel tries to pass
this to its parent, it makes sense that it stops here.
Since the clock rate is set by the parent, does it make sense to look
for CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT flag and call a function to set the parent
rate if the flag ist set?
It seems like this would be the simplest without having to re-define
what the clock type is, but lets us pass a flag and only mux's with
that type could request the parent to set the clock rate. This should
let us drop the video_pll clock lower, have a better chance of
successfully getting the ideal frequency for the LCDIF to sync, and
allow for a larger list of resolutions and refresh rates due to the
fact they are no longer limited to being evenly diviisable from 594
MHz.
