We could have the code to check the allowed difference in place.

Well, I think the clocks in the logical video modes are aligned, but the
actual clock from the display controller or the PHY most likely is not
aligned.

Depends on how strict the HW is about the allowed difference between the
crtc and the DSI IP. It maybe that that 1 Hz is one too many... But that
can be avoided by just making sure that the check rounds the values
properly, or maybe just reduces the allowed range by 1kHz on both ends.

So I don't think it's an issue, but it is something to keep in mind.
