OK, you are right.

Can you please provide me with some more hint here ? As for as I understand, 
using the 'pixelclk-active' DT prop in the 'display-timings' node for this 
purpose is correct, yes ? What I don't quite grok down is how do I get this 
information from DT into the imx-drm driver.

Thanks!
