The "clk_divider_set_rate" function is working properly and 
setup the divider properly. There is no need to perform any
special process when enabling or initializing the PWM clock.

The problem occur when the PWM is enable in the project specific
device tree and the PWM output clock is not explicitly setup.

With the actual implementation, the function that compute the 
output rate, based on the actual divider, return the parent clock
rate, which is inaccurate, since the clock is off. The core driver
will than call the enable function, which should not take place.

This patch ensure that the compute output rate for the PWM clock
handle properly the special case for a 0 divider. By returning 0,
the core driver do not try to enable the clock, which is the
expected behavior.

I still think the current patch is the proper way to fix the
issue created by the "CLK_DIVIDER_ALLOW_ZERO" flag of the PWM clock.
