This is an adoption of the corresponding Linux commit:
| commit da321133b53caf7889ed3ca1dabe4cc368db2604

| clk: divider: fix calculation of maximal parent rate for a given divider
|
| The rate provided at the output of a clk-divider is calculated as:
|
| DIV_ROUND_UP(parent_rate, div)
|
| since commit b11d282dbea2 (clk: divider: fix rate calculation for
| fractional rates). So to yield a rate not bigger than r parent_rate
| must be <= r * div.
|
| The effect of choosing a parent rate that is too big as was done before
| this patch results in wrongly ruling out good dividers.
|
| Note that this is not a complete fix as __clk_round_rate might return a
| value >= its 2nd parameter. Also for dividers with
| CLK_DIVIDER_ROUND_CLOSEST set the calculation is not accurate. But this
| fixes the test case by Sascha Hauer that uses a chain of three dividers
| under a fixed clock.

The "not a complete fix" caveat applies here as well: barebox'
clk_round_rate() falls back to clk_get_rate() for a clock without a
round_rate op, and clk_mux_round_rate() returns the closest parent rate, so
both can return more than they were asked for and clk_divider_bestdiv() can
still end up without a candidate. CLK_DIVIDER_ROUND_CLOSEST doesn't exist in
barebox, so that half of the caveat doesn't apply.
With the previous commit, the i.MX6 IPU pixel clocks now hit their
requested rates exactly, e.g. on a SABRE Lite:
clk_round_rate ipu1_di0 65000000 -> 65000000 (was 40500000)
clk_round_rate ipu1_di0 148500000 -> 148500000 (was 148500001)
