[PATCH 1/1] phy: freescale: fsl-samsung-hdmi: initialize default rate

[PATCH 1/1] phy: freescale: fsl-samsung-hdmi: initialize default rate

[Aristo Chen]

The HDMI PHY clock reports 74.25 MHz when cur_cfg is unset, but does
not establish that rate in hardware. The common clock framework caches
the reported rate when registering the clock and skips a first
clk_set_rate(74250000) request because the rate appears unchanged.

Consequently, a display whose initial mode uses a 74.25 MHz pixel clock
can leave the PHY with its bootloader register state and receive no
TMDS signal. Requesting another rate first avoids the issue because the
set_rate callback configures the PHY.

Program the 74.25 MHz table entry with the reference clock enabled
before registering the clock provider. recalc_rate can then report the
configured rate, and a skipped first rate change is safe. Also enable
the reference clock when restoring that configuration on resume.

Unfortunately this breaks my platform (imx8mp-tqma8mpql-mba8mpxl.dts).
With this patch applied I get the following errors in kernel log:
> fsl-samsung-hdmi-phy 32fdff00.phy: PLL failed to lock
> fsl-samsung-hdmi-phy 32fdff00.phy: error -ETIMEDOUT: failed to configure default rate
> fsl-samsung-hdmi-phy 32fdff00.phy: probe with driver fsl-samsung-hdmi-phy failed with error -110

Reverting fixes my platform and HDMI as expected.

Best regards,
Alexander
