Hello Christian, 
Yes, that 100 is hardcoded in Radeon, and git blame says it was one of your patches which made it 100 from 128 😊. 
Would you mind having a look at commit id: 4b21ce1b4b5d262e7d4656b8ececc891fc3cb806 ? 

Regards
Shashank

Mhm, is that 100 hard coded in radeon? I have no idea where that is coming from.

Best would probably to grab a hardware engineer and try to figure out what the real maximums for the PLL is to still produce a stable signal.
