The AM625 TRM seems to be missing the "DSS integration" section, even if 
it's referred to in three places in the TRM. Supposedly that has details 
about the clocking.

Shouldn't the source clock be 3.5x when dual-link mode is used?

While I don't know the details, this doesn't feel correct. We're 
supposed to be setting the VP pixel clock here, and the serial clock 
would be derived from that as it's done on AM65x. Is the DT clock tree 
wrong for AM625?
