On some pinephones the video output sometimes freezes (flips between two
frames) [1]. It seems to be that the reason for this behaviour is that
PLL-MIPI is outside its limits, and the GPU is not running at a fixed
rate.

In this patch series I propose the following changes:
  1. sunxi-ng: Adhere to the following constraints given in the
     Allwinner A64 Manual regarding PLL-MIPI:
      * M/N <= 3
      * (PLL_VIDEO0)/M >= 24MHz
      * 500MHz <= clockrate <= 1400MHz

  2. Remove two operating points from the A64 DTS OPPs, so that the GPU
     runs at a fixed rate of 432 MHz.

Note, that when pinning the GPU to 432 MHz the issue [1] completely
disappears for me. I've searched the BSP and could not find any
indication that supports the idea of having the three OPPs. The only
frequency I found in the BPSs for A64 is 432 MHz, which has also proven
stable for me.

I very much appreciate your feedback!

Changes in v4:
- sunxi-ng: common: Address review comments.
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240304-pinephone-pll-fixes-v3-0-94ab828f269a@oltmanns.dev

Changes in v3:
- dts: Pin GPU to 432 MHz.
- nkm and a64: Move minimum and maximum rate handling to the common part
  of the sunxi-ng driver.
- Removed st7703 patch from series.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240205-pinephone-pll-fixes-v2-0-96a46a2d8c9b@oltmanns.dev

Changes in v2:
- dts: Increase minimum GPU frequency to 192 MHz.
- nkm and a64: Add minimum and maximum rate for PLL-MIPI.
- nkm: Use the same approach for skipping invalid rates in
  ccu_nkm_find_best() as in ccu_nkm_find_best_with_parent_adj().
- nkm: Improve names for ratio struct members and hence get rid of
  describing comments.
- nkm and a64: Correct description in the commit messages: M/N <= 3
- Remove patches for nm as they were not needed.
- st7703: Rework the commit message to cover more background for the
  change.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231218-pinephone-pll-fixes-v1-0-e238b6ed6dc1@oltmanns.dev
