Subject: [PATCH v3 0/8] clk: sunxi-ng: Consider alternative parent rates
when determining NKM clock rate
This patchset enables NKM clocks to consider alternative parent rates
and utilize this new feature to adjust the pll-video0 clock on Allwinner
A64 (PATCH 1 and 2).
Furthermore, with this patchset pll-video0 considers rates that are
higher than the requested rate when finding the closest rate. In
consequence, higher rates are also considered by pll-video0's
descandents (PATCH 3 et. seq.).
This allows us to achieve an optimal rate for driving the board's panel.
To provide some context, the clock structure involved in this process is
as follows:
clock clock type
--------------------------------------
pll-video0 ccu_nm
pll-mipi ccu_nkm
tcon0 ccu_mux
tcon-data-clock sun4i_dclk
The divider between tcon0 and tcon-data-clock is fixed at 4. Therefore,
in order to achieve a rate that closely matches the desired rate of the
panel, pll-mipi needs to operate at a specific rate.
Tests
=====
So far, this has been successfully tested on the A64-based Pinephone
using three different panel rates:
1. A panel rate that can be matched exactly by pll-video0.
2. A panel rate that requires pll-video0 to undershoot to get the
closest rate.
3. A panel rate that requires pll-video0 to overshoot to get the
closest rate.

Panel requests tcon-data-clock of 103500000 Hz, i.e., pll-mipi needs to
run at 414000000 Hz. This results in the following clock rates:

Here, we consistently ask the pll-video0 for a rate that it can't
provide exactly:
- rate=414600000: We ask the parent for 282681818 (rate * m / (n * k)),
it returns 282666666. Here the parent undershoots.
- rate=414577776: We ask the parent for 282666665 (rate * m / (n * k)),
it returns 282666666. Here the parent overshoots.
So, in both cases it rounds to the nearest rate (first down, then up),
which is the intended behaviour.

Here, we consistently ask the pll-video0 for a rate that it can't

- rate=449064000: We ask the parent for 207260307 (rate * m / (n * k)),

- rate=449090908: We ask the parent for 207272726 (rate * m / (n * k)),
it returns 207272727.
So, in both cases, it rounds up to the nearest rate, which is the
intended behavior.
Changes in v3:
- Use dedicated function for finding the best rate in cases where an
nkm clock supports setting its parent's rate, streamlining it with
the structure that is used in other sunxi-ng ccus such as ccu_mp
(PATCH 1).
- Therefore, remove the now obsolete comments that were introduced in
v2 (PATCH 1).
- Remove the dedicated function for calculating the optimal parent rate
for nkm clocks that was introduced in v2. Instead use a simple
calculation and require the parent clock to select the closest rate to
achieve optimal results (PATCH 1).
- Therefore, add support to set the closest rate for nm clocks (because
pll-mipi's parent pll-video0 is an nm clock) and all clock types that
are descendants of a64's pll-video0, i.e., nkm, mux, and div (PATCH 3
et. seq.).

Changes in V2:
- Move optimal parent rate calculation to dedicated function
- Choose a parent rate that does not to overshoot requested rate
- Add comments to ccu_nkm_find_best
- Make sure that best_parent_rate stays at original parent rate in the unlikely
case that all combinations overshoot.
