[PATCH 5/5] drm/sun4i: Run the mixer clock at 297 MHz on V3s

The DE mixer clock is currently set to run at 150 MHz, while the
Allwinner BSP configures it at 300 MHz and other platforms typically
run at 297 MHz.

150 MHz appears to be enough given the restricted graphics capabilities
of the SoC (with a work area of only 1024x1024). However it typically
causes the DE clock to be parented to the periph0 pll instead of the
video PLL.

While this should generally not be a concern, it appears (based on
experimentation) that both the DE and TCON clocks need to be parented
to the same PLL for these units to work. While we cannot represent this
constraint in the clock driver, it appears that the TCON clock will
often get parented to the video pll (typically running at 297 MHz for
the CSI units needs), for instance when driving displays with a 33 MHz
pixel clock (33 being a natural divider of 297).

Running the DE clock at 297 MHz will typically result in parenting to
the video pll instead of the periph0 pll, thus making the display
output functional.

This is all a bit fragile but it solves the issue with displays running
at 33 Mhz and brings V3s to use the same frequency as other platforms,
making support more unified.

Also align and sort the fields of the v3s mixer config while at it.
