1/3 is almost the same waveform as D0,
having rising an falling edges almost in sync with D0.
It's not so clear because DCLK has a bad figure,
but it is that way.

2/3 instead is almost in the middle of D0 as rising.

Summarizing:
- use 0/3 as falling, then DRM_BUS_FLAG_PIXDATA_NEGEDGE
- use 2/3 as rising, then DRM_BUS_FLAG_PIXDATA_POSEDGE

I follow with a new patch using clk_set_phase function.
