That's true, but so far it's something that never has been really
needed. This PLL is not the same one using the fractional mode, so I
guess we could extend the clk-factors to be able to deal with
that. The video pll in the A10 (pll3) is also in this case, so does
the A31 PLL3 and PLL4.

Also note that all these clocks can reach those frequencies through
what allwinner calls the integer mode, so apart from the hardware
readout, we don't really need it anyway.

Indeed, I was waiting for the first DRM developments to get in before
sending those for review.

The video PLL is, the display engine and tcon clocks are a bit
different (mostly because of their weird parent configuration that
need a muxing table). Note that I'm talking about the A23 / A33. I
haven't checked for the H3.

Thanks!
