Sorry but can you please clarify what exactly is incorrect or different 
about this math when compared to downstream? And, if you think that this 
math is incorrect, what exactly has to be changed to make it the "right 
math"?

We've already shown step-by-step [1] not only how the resulting pclk 
from the downstream code matches out upstream calculations, but also how 
the inclusion of porches in the upstream math would make up for the fact 
that upstream has no concept of transfer time [2].

If the lack of transfer time in the upstream math is the issue, I 
believe that that's not within the scope of this series, as transfer 
time is not something specific to DSC.

Moreover, as stated in an earlier revision [3], there is no way to 
validate DSC over DSI for video mode. As far as I know, we do not have a 
way to validate video mode datapath for DSI in general.

While the math technically matches up (assuming, also, that 
mode->hdisplay == slice_width * slice_count for all cases), there are 
conceptual differences between the pclk and hdisplay calculations.

Just to reiterate what was already said on IRC:

In the pclk calculation, we're multiplying pclk by the compression ratio 
(which would be target_bpp / src_bpp) -- please note that here, we 
calculate src_bpp by doing bpc * 3.

In the hdisplay calculation, we calculate the bytes per line and divide 
by 3 (bytes) to account for the fact that we can only process 3 bytes 
per pclk cycle.

So while I understand why you would want to put this behind a shared 
helper, I think abstracting the pclk and hdisplay math away would 
obfuscate the conceptual difference between the 2 calculations.

Sure, we are planning to add a patch to the end of this series 
documenting the math.

Acked.
