It currently doesn't check that the resultant clock is lower than the 
requested.  I can certainly make that change and resubmit.  I wasn't 
aware of this requirement.

So with the patch as it stands, if you request a CPU clock of 391Mhz, 
it'll give you 392.71MHz. Would it be correct for the clock to be set at 
375.65MHz (the next closest valid clock rate without going over)?

Thanks,
Matt
