It's been a while since I looked at the fclk requirements, but isn't the
current CONFIG_OMAP2_DSS_MIN_FCK_PER_PCK enough? It is quite hackish and
static, but a proper implementation is much harder (dynamically changing
the clocks depending on the scaling).

Or were there some additional restrictions?
