tcon-pixel clock and tcon are mutual connected. The code is done in a way
that optimal clock need to be search. Now the patch that I propose is more
connected to the description I gave.

I need some comment from Maxime, what he prefers or we need to search for
a different one. I don't had time to check Maxime proposal because I'm working
on other projects.
