Here's a new series that includes those renames:

It turns out however that the new dclk rates can't be set exactly as
requested without touching pll-video0*, tcon0 now therefore gets
reparented from pll-mipi to pll-video0-2x which, as it further turns
out, breaks DSI. While simply forbidding the video0-2x mux option seems
to me as the right way to go because there's not much use for it with
non-DSI interfaces either besides the opportunity to power pll-mipi
down, I'd like to run by you first.
Kind regards,
Roman
* As pll-mipi doesn't have CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT flag set, pll-video0
retains its boot-time rate of 294 MHz set by sunxi-dw-hdmi driver
in u-boot. Why 294 MHz (as opposed to the default rate of 297 MHz)?
The driver actually asks for 297 MHz, clock_set_pll3 rounds it to
294 MHz though because it limits itself to 6 MHz steps.
