The multiplication ratio for the PLL is required to be even due to the
use of a "by 2 pre-scaler". Currently we are likely to end up with an
odd multiplier even though there is an equivalent set of parameters with
an even multiplier.

For example, using the 324MHz bit rate with a reference clock of 24MHz
we end up with M = 27, N = 2 whereas the example in the PHY databook
gives M = 54, N = 4 for this bit rate and reference clock.

By walking down through the available multiplier instead of up we are
more likely to hit an even multiplier. With the above example we do now
get M = 54, N = 4 as given by the databook.

While doing this, change the loop limits to encode the actual limits on
the divisor, which are:

40MHz >= (pllref / N) >= 5MHz

This formula is limit for N, but we still can not guarantee to get an even M.
Do you think we should do a check for M.
such as:
if (m % 2)
continue;
...
for (i = pllref / 5; i > (pllref / 40); i--) {
pre = pllref / i;
if ((tmp > (target_mbps % pre)) && (target_mbps / pre < 512)) {
tmp = target_mbps % pre;
n = i;
m = target_mbps / pre;
if (m % 2)
continue;
}
if (tmp == 0)
break;
}

if (m % 2)
m++;

dsi->lane_mbps = pllref / n * m;
dsi->input_div = n;
dsi->feedback_div = m;
