Good question, and I don't have a clear answer. But I think the point is
just to inform the user that it's likely that his LCD won't work
properly, and often LCDs are quite tolerant about the pclk. So diff less
than 1% is just fine. Even 5% sounds still fine to me, perhaps even 10%.
I think we just have to try something out, and adjust it if people get
the message too often.
