Yes , the DT node only can provided one pixel clock by using a fixed clock.
But we Display Port controller support 4 or more resolutions, each of which
requires a set of pixel clocks to drive, and we hope they can switch any 
resolution
we want by some program every times.

For example, if we set that fixed pixel clock is 27000000 (27Mhz), but user 
hope can see
a group 1080p resolution penguins during startup , and hope playing a 4k video 
once
system boot up done. 
Btw, In our board, the 1080p resolution is driven by a 148.5Mhz pixel clock, 4k 
is driven
by a 594Mhz. 27Mhz only can drive 480p resolution.

To meet the above user requirements, I was to setup following steps,
1. Add the "video=1920x1080-32@60" to bootargs command line [specify penguins 
size]
2. Play a 4K video with 4k resolution when system boot up done.

These comments just want to let you know.

According to our pixel configuration above,
Now the variable req_rate value is 148500000 or 59400000, another variable rate 
value is
27000000, so we will get a warning and display will cannot works well. 

We're not sure which resolution are user want, and we also can't just offered 
one resolution
to user. so I remove this check on our board, maybe it's not good change.

I want to know do you have other good suggestion? Thanks.

Best Regards,
Wen
