From: Chaoyi Chen <chaoyi.chen at rock-chips.com>
The lane rate is calculated as follows:
Lane_Rate = Pixel_Clk * BPP / lanes * Overhead
The overhead factor is set to 1/0.8, equivalent to a 25% overhead.
Now let's consider the case of RGB888 (BPP24) with a pclk of 148.5MHz.
The lane rate equals 148.5M * 24 / 4 * 1.25 = 1113.75 Mbps.
However, this is beyond the capability of certain platforms limited to a
1Gbps lane rate. On the other hand, we have observed that some DSI panel
actually perform worse with higher overhead.
So we are considering relaxing the bandwidth margin requirements.
According to the downstream test results, adopting 1/0.9 seems to
be a sound approach, corresponding to an overhead of about 11%.
