Fix E6400 display issue with 1440 x 900 panel
The E6400 uses a 100 MHz reference clock on DPLL_REF_SSCLK, whereas libgfxinit assumed that the reference was always 96 MHz. The frequency difference caused by a 100 MHz reference with PLL config values calculated assuming a 96 MHz reference were not significant enough to cause noticable issues with the more common 1280 x 800 panels, but are enough to matter for the 1440 x 900 panels which use a higher pixel clock. This only affected the pre-OS graphics environment provided by libgfxinit, as Linux drivers would determine the reference clock frequency based on data in the VBT. Fix this by making the reference clock frequency in libgfxinit configurable for GM45 based on a new coreboot Kconfig, which is set to 100 MHz for the E6400.

+Subject: [PATCH] mb/dell/e6400: Use 100 MHz reference clock for display
+
+The E6400 uses a 100 MHz reference clock for spread spectrum support on
+LVDS, whereas libgfxinit previously assumed a 96 MHz input clock. For
+the more common 1280 x 800 display panels, the numerical error was not
+large enough to cause noticable issues, but the actual pixel clock
+frequency derived from a 100 MHz reference using PLL configs calculated
+assuming a 96 MHz reference was not close enough for 1440 x 900 panels,
+which require a much higher pixel clock. This resulted in a garbled
+display in the pre-OS graphics environment provided by libgfxinit.

+Subject: [PATCH] g45/hw-gfx-gma-plls.adb: Make reference clock frequency
+ configurable
+
+Instead of assuming a 96 MHz reference clock frequency, use the value
+specified by the new INTEL_GMA_DPLL_REF_FREQ Kconfig. This defaults to
+96 MHz to preserve the existing behavior. An example of where this is
+needed is the DPLL_REF_SSCLK input, which will typically be 100 MHz
+to support LVDS spread spectrum clocking.
