Hmm, yes, perhaps that would be possible.

Currently we iterate suitable clocks by going through all fck dividers,
then lck dividers and then pck dividers, and checking if one of the
resulting pixel clocks is close to the required one.

But we could start with the required pck, and go "up" from there with
pck dividers, lck dividers, and in the end using clk_round_rate() to see
if the set of dividers is possible.

And we know the maximum allowed fck rate, so we can use that as a
ceiling and forget any divider sets that lead to too high clocks.

This will probably need a bit more iterations, though, as we may be
trying multiple divider sets leading to the same fck rate, because the
code doesn't have any idea what the possible rates are.

I trust clk_round_rate() is quite simple function (ie. fast)?
