drm/bridge: tc358767: Enable FRMSYNC timing generator

Browse source

TC9595 datasheet Video Path0 Control (VPCTRL0) Register bit FRMSYNC description
says "This bit should be disabled only in video mode transmission where Host
transmits video timing together with video data and where pixel clock source
is from DSI clock." . This driver always sources pixel clock from external xtal,
therefore the FRMSYNC bit must always be enabled, enable it.

This fixes an actual issue with DSI-to-DPI mode, where the display would
randomly show subtle pixel flickering, or wobble, or shimmering. This is
visible on solid gray color, but the degree of the shimmering differs
between boots, which makes it hard to debug.

There is a caveat to the FRMSYNC and this bridge pixel PLL, which can only
generate pixel clock with limited accuracy, it may therefore be necessary
to reduce the HFP to fit into line length of input pixel data, to avoid any
possible overflows, which make the output video look striped horizontally.
