It seems complexity of driver would increase by creating a new inherited
divider clock and having a total 3-4 clock nodes. The advantage going
with it would be higher configurable resolution for pixel clock.
Current use cases work without higher pixel clock resolution.

And drm driver posted for the same IP is without CCF modeling.

So I will presently not model clock nodes in LCDC IP, later if use cases
badly require, this can be done (and if it happens, hopefully by that
DaVinci would be CCF'ed and it would be more clean to implement it).

Thanks for sharing your ideas.

Afzal
