Ahh.. I thought this initially but as far as DSI clock computation is
concern, the L12 tcon_div is local variable which is used for edge0
computation in burst mode and not for the dsi clock computation. Since
the BSP is unable to get the tcon_div during edge0 computation, they
defined it locally I think.

You can see the lcd_clk_config() code [2], where we can see DSI clock
computation using dsi_div value.

Here is dump after the in Line 792 which is after computation[3]
[   10.800737] lcd_clk_config: dsi_div = 6, tcon_div = 4, lcd_div = 1
[   10.800743] lcd_clk_config: lcd_dclk_freq = 55, dclk_rate = 55000000
[   10.800749] lcd_clk_config: lcd_rate = 330000000, pll_rate = 330000000

The above dump the lcd_rate 330MHz is computed with panel clock, 55MHz
into dsi_div 6. So this can be our actual divider values dclk_min_div,
dclk_max_div in sun4i_dclk_round_rate (from
drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_dotclock.c)

We can even confirm this from Mainline code:
[    1.866128] sun4i_dclk_round_rate: min_div = 6 max_div = 6, rate = 55000000
[    1.873112] round_rate, parent = 330000000
[    1.877351] round_rate, rate = 330000000
[    1.881338] ideal = 330000000, rounded = 330000000, div = 6
[    1.887232] sun4i_dclk_round_rate: div = 6 rate = 55000000
[    1.887239] sun4i_dclk_round_rate: min_div = 6 max_div = 6, rate = 55000000
[    1.887243] round_rate, parent = 330000000
[    1.887259] round_rate, rate = 330000000
[    1.887264] ideal = 330000000, rounded = 330000000, div = 6
[    1.887267] sun4i_dclk_round_rate: div = 6 rate = 55000000
[    1.887270] round_rate, parent = 330000000
[    1.887286] round_rate, rate = 330000000
[    1.887292] round_rate, parent = 330000000
[    1.887307] round_rate, rate = 330000000
[    1.887320] sun4i_dclk_recalc_rate: val = 1, rate = 330000000
[    1.887324] sun4i_dclk_recalc_rate: val = 1, rate = 330000000
[    1.887350] rate = 330000000
[    1.887353] parent_rate = 297000000
[    1.887355] reg = 0x80c00000
[    1.887359] _nkm.n = 5, nkm->n.offset = 0x1, nkm->n.shift = 8
[    1.887362] _nkm.k = 2, nkm->k.offset = 0x1, nkm->k.shift = 4
[    1.887365] _nkm.m = 9, nkm->m.offset = 0x1, nkm->m.shift = 0
[    1.887712] sun4i_dclk_set_rate div 6
[    1.887720] sun4i_dclk_recalc_rate: val = 6, rate = 55000000

So, the dsi_div from AW BSP is our dclk_mini_div(and dclk_max_div) and
that can be computed as format/lanes in A64.

Hope this explaining clears the diff, let me know if I miss anything.
