[PATCH 33/33] drm/panel-simple: Fix dotclock for LG ACX467AKM-7

If I have time to kill over the weekend I'll do a new rebase of my Nexus
5 patches (my last rebase was back in August on 5.2, and the panel was
working correctly at 60Hz back then).
Looked at it again and it does look like your glmark was vsynced (glmark
explicitly disables vsync so I guess you have it force-enabled) since
the results are all 26-27 (X works a bit differently and gets double the
framerate somehow?)
