That makes sense.  I can do that.

"DSIM high speed burst mode frequency (optional). If absent, the pixel
clock from the attached device or bridge will be used instead."

"Must be" implies to me that the user needs to set something.  Are you
ok with the proposed suggestion above?

>From what I can tell, the assumption is that the DSIM driver was
expecting it to attach to panels in the past.  With the additional
patch series, the DSIM can attach to bridge parts without a hard-coded
set of clocks.  I don't expect the existing Exynos devices to change,
but I also don't know what would preclude those SoC's from attaching
to a bridge should someone want to design a new product around them.

I'll wait a couple days for more feedback and send patch V2 with just
this patch since the rest of the series has been applied to the drm
branch.
