It has been determined that the maximum resolution supported correctly by tilcdc rev1 on da850 SoCs is 800x600@60. Due to memory throughput constraints we must filter out higher modes.
Specify the max-bandwidth property for the display node for da850-based boards.

If this is effectively the max pixel clock that the device supports, then why not use the datasheet specified value of 37.5 MHz (Tc = 26.66 ns).
There's a separate property for max-pixelclock. This one is maximum pixels per second (which does sound almost the same), but the doc says it's about the particular memory interface + LCDC combination.
DA850 supports both mDDR and DDR2, at slightly different speeds. So memory bandwidth limitation is also board specific. This should probably move to board file.
But I would like to know why using max-pixelclock is not good enough. Have experiments shown that LCDC on DA850 LCDK underflows even if pixel clock is below the datasheet recommendation?
Thanks, Sekhar
