3. Actually enable the clock provider. I've had a look at the public
documentation and it looks like the the pixelclock is provided by an IDT 
VersaClock 5
generator, for which there is a kernel driver. I've started playing with it but 
got 
pulled back by other more immediate tasks.

Anyway, what I was trying to hint was that putting in the code the exact 
pixelclock
value might not be the best thing. In my view, pixelclock reflects the need for
a certain bandwidth, with is usually a product of output (number of pixels) and
refresh frequency. I'm guessing going above 4k@60 will also trigger the
flicker,

Actually, the register default value always is 0x00010001(can be found in RM 
document).

Yes, you remember correctly, but
1. declare the pixelclocks in the device tree.
About this, I was hoping to discuss it with you. I want to implement another 
patch
that just declare 27MHz reference clock in the device tree and add a fake clock 
subsystem
to enable/display prepare to set PLL. I am thinking what to do next.
As I remember, I sent out a patch that "Disable checking for required pixel 
clock",
I think should be cancel it.

2. declare the fixed resolutions list in DTS.
Yes, Although I put four resolutions for supported list in DTS file, but this 
just a
workaround that If not enable EDID OR EDID is not available. Once EDID is 
enabled,
these resolutions list declare will be remove in DTS. so we can't use it as a 
condition
to set the QoS value.
