If V0PLL is not explicitly specified here, then dclk_vop2 (VP2) may be divided down on GPLL, CPLL, etc. In this case, only a few frequency points are available. In my case, when V0PLL is not used, only resolutions such as 1024x768 and 640x480 are available.

Oh! This is because GPLL was not initialized to the correct frequency during the U-Boot stage. It should support typical frequencies such as 1080P (148.5M), 4K (594M) .

Yes, I think this modification is necessary because some resolutions use special frequencies.
