Hi,

A couple of comments below.

The divisor is either 1 or 2 in this case, for bit[6] values of 0 and 1?

Sorry, I don't follow the explanation here.

This is how I interpret the current code, can you confirm if it's accurate?

usb24 is the (potentially) divided output from usb24s, while usb24s is
at a fixed pass-through rate from the parent if enabled. Both share the
same enable bit. In other words, usb24 is a directly derived, potentially
divided-by-two rate from usb24s?

This is just standard clk infrastructure usage, I don't think there's need to
include the example code here.
