Hmm "Mobile Intel® 915GM/PM/GME/GMS and 910GML/GMLE Express Chipset
Specification Update" seems to sketch an even more complicated scenario,
where it even depends on the GMCH subtype...

FSB and also DRAM freq can be probably be fetched from respectively
[2:0] and [6:4] of CLKCFG, MCHBAR(0xC00) but not documented.
On 945GM I think the voltage strap is on DFT_STRAP1 bit20, MCHBAR(0xE08)
(also not really documented but this is how it is done in Coreboot).
It might be the same on 915GM...

Given that getting the 915GM display clock correctly probably ends up
being quite different from 945GM it might make sense to have 2 separate
functions for that?

Kind regards
