Therefore, to make your panel work at the correct desired pixel clock frequency instead of some random one inherited from imx8mp.dtsi, add the following to the pollux DT, I believe that will fix the problem and is the correct fix:

Because [1] sets inaccurate pixel clock of 74.25 MHz, which can be 
divided down from random default Video PLL setting of 1039.5 MHz set in 
imx8mp.dtsi media_blk_ctrl , 1039.5 / 74.25 = 14 .

The panel-simple pixel clock are 72.4 MHz, to achieve that accurately, 
it is necessary to reconfigure the Video PLL frequency to 506.8 MHz , 
which LCDIFv3 can do, but LDB can not, hence it has to be done in DT for 
now.
