I think if we stick to the idea of always enforcing the exact "typical
rate", we cannot avoid physically impossible cases. IMHO, it might make
sense to add a set_rate() function with a "timing_entry" (e.g. used by
display_timing.h[1]) to the clock API, which gives a suggestion but also
defines the "real" boundaries. This would provide a shared parent PLL
more freedom to provide a satisfying rate for all its children.

Benjamin
