Many platform support this feature, and it can provide significant
power savings when the reduced refresh rate is low.  However, on some
platforms a secondary (reduced) timing is provided but not actually
supported by the hardware.  This results in undesirable flicker at
runtime.

So disable the feature by default, but allow users to opt-in to the
reduced clock behavior with a new module parameter, lvds_downclock,
that can be set to 1 to enable the feature.
