Due to memory throughput constraints any display mode for which the
pixel clock rate exceeds the recommended value of 37500 KHz must be
filtered out.

Specify the max-pixelclock property for the display node for
da850-lcdk.

I think there might be more reasons than memory throughput constraints
for the reasoning behind 37.5Mhz cap on pixel clock. Why not just refer
to the datasheet section that places this constraint so we know its a
hardware restriction.

Should this not be in da850.dtsi since its an SoC imposed constraint? If
a board needs narrower constraint, it can override it. But I guess most
well designed boards will just hit the SoC constraint.

Thanks,

Both issues fixed in v3.
