Could you please help with the above query from Stephen?

Hello Stephen,
For DP link speed of 5.4Gbit/s, the PLL will be running at 10.8 Ghz. For all
the other DP link speeds, the PLL will be running at 8.1 Ghz.


Can I safely assume that it matches the link rate shown on Wikipedia for
display port[1]? I.e.

RBR (Reduced Bit Rate): 1.62 Gbit/s bandwidth per lane (162 MHz link
symbol rate)
HBR (High Bit Rate): 2.70 Gbit/s bandwidth per lane (270 MHz link
symbol rate)
HBR2 (High Bit Rate 2): 5.40 Gbit/s bandwidth per lane (540 MHz link
symbol rate), introduced in DP 1.2
HBR3 (High Bit Rate 3): 8.10 Gbit/s bandwidth per lane (810 MHz link
symbol rate), introduced in DP 1.3

So then they're MHz but the table is written in kHz when it should be
written in Hz. Either way, the table can be removed and then we just
need to fix the DP PHY PLL code to accept Hz instead of kHz.
