[PATCHv3] drm/sun4i: validate modes for HDMI

When I connected my cubieboard running 4.15-rc1 to my 4k display I got no picture. Some
digging found that there is no check against the upper pixelclock limit of the HDMI
output, so X selects a 4kp60 format at 594 MHz, which obviously won't work.

The patch below adds a check for the upper bound of what this hardware can do, and
it checks if the requested tmds clock can be obtained.

It also allows for the +/- 0.5% pixel clock variation that the HDMI spec permits.

That code is based on commit 22d0be2a557e53a22feb484e8fce255fe09e6ad5 from
Jose Abreu for drm/arc.
