Is this something seen on OMAP3 also? I guess it must be since it's the 
same DSI IP.

Why do we do the req_pck check here? Can't we do it much earlier? We 
could bail out right in the beginning of dsi_pll_calc_clock_div_pck() if 
we see that req_pck is greater than 100 Mhz.

Also, we could maybe have a comment (or in the commit message) saying 
that we chose the 100 Mhz to make it a safe bet.
