Can we do something like below?
    1. Add a required dt-property to indicate what is the source of
refclk, ti,sn-refclk-src = <0> ---> means refclk is derived from refclk
pin.

ti,sn-refclk-src = <1> ---> means refclk is derived from DACP/N pin. 2. Add a clock property to indicate the refclk frequency for refclk
pin.
3. In driver, parse the refclk source dt-property. If the source is refclk pin then get the frquency from clock dt-property and program the
i2c register accordingly.
Else if the source is DACP/N pin then calculate the DSIA frequency based on current display mode (by the time we go for configuring refclk,
drm_mode_set is already done and in  diver we can calculate the
frequency) and program the i2c register accordingly.

The presence or non-presence of the refclk should still be indicated via
the standard clock property instead of some TI specific property. The
driver can try to clk_get() the refclk and if its there it can call
clk_get_rate() to figure out the reference clk frequency. It should also
turn it on with clk_prepare_enable() to make sure the clk is clocking
and turn it off when the driver isn't using it.

If the reference clk is recovered from the DACP/N pin then there won't
be a clocks property, and the driver can do what you describe in #3.

number is 4, i will update this in binding

Really? What do you need 4 cells for? The number of cells doesn't
indicate the number of GPIOs on the device.

It should be 2, got confused with number GPIOs.
