[PATCH] atmel-lcdc: Fix pixclock upper bound detection

[Ben Nizette]

AFAICT the code which checks that the requested pixclock value is within
bounds is incorrect.  It ensures that the lcdc core clock is at least
(bytes per pixel) times higher than the pixel clock rather than just
greater than or equal to.

There are tighter restrictions on the pixclock value as a function of
bus width for STN panels but even then it isn't a simple relationship as
currently checked for.  IMO either something like the below patch should
be applied or else more detailed checking logic should be implemented
which takes in to account the panel type as well.

CMIIW :-)
