[PATCH v2 0/2] clk: sunxi-ng: Consider alternative parent rates when determining NKM clock rate

This is V2 of a patchset that enables NKM clocks to consider alternative parent
rates and utilize this new feature to adjust the pll-video0 clock on Allwinner
A64.

This allows to achieve an optimal rate for driving the board's panel.

To provide some context, the clock structure involved in this process is as follows:
clock clock type
--------------------------------------
pll-video0 ccu_nm
pll-mipi ccu_nkm
tcon0 ccu_mux
tcon-data-clock sun4i_dclk

The divider between tcon0 and tcon-data-clock is fixed at 4. Therefore, in order
to achieve a rate that closely matches the desired rate of the panel, pll-mipi
needs to operate at a specific rate.

Changes in V2:
- Move optimal parent rate calculation to dedicated function
- Choose a parent rate that does not to overshoot requested rate
- Add comments to ccu_nkm_find_best
- Make sure that best_parent_rate stays at original parent rate in the unlikely
case that all combinations overshoot.
