This cannot work. _round_up_table is implemented like this:

static int _round_up_table(const struct clk_div_table *table, int div)
{
	const struct clk_div_table *clkt;
	int up = _get_table_maxdiv(table);

	for (clkt = table; clkt->div; clkt++) {
		if (clkt->div == div)
			return clkt->div;
		...
	}
	...
}

Here when a table entry matches the input div this function will return
exactly the input div. This means _next_div() will always return the
same value and clk_divider_bestdiv() has an infinite loop:

	for (i = 1; i <= maxdiv; i = _next_div(divider, i)) {
		...
	}
