unnecessary parenthesis

Shawn, also what is above here is suboptimal (quoted using }):

}        div = rate / parent_rate;
}        temp64 = (u64) (rate - div * parent_rate);
That's equivalent to:
	temp64 = rate % parent_rate;

If you want to save the possible additional division, at least point
this out in a comment.

}        temp64 *= mfd;
}        do_div(temp64, parent_rate);
}        mfn = temp64;
For the example from Anson's commit log (rate = 1066000000, parent_rate
= 24000000) you calculate

	div = 0x2c
	mfn = 416666
	mfd = 1000000

yielding a rate of 1065999984 Hz. Using
do_div(temp64 + parent_rate / 2, parent_rate) instead would make mfn
bigger by one yielding 1066000008.0 which results in a better
approximation. I guess using rational_best_approximation would result in
a still better approximation, probably even finding the optimal match.

This is wrong, both parent_rate and mfn are 32 bit unsigned integers
(unsigned long and u32) respectively. So this might well overflow.
