> The UART driver used in this case is amba-pl011. Original fix, see
> below Github link[2], was inside pl011 module, but somehow it didn't
> look as the right place to fix. Beside that this original rounding

> The UART clock is initialised to be as close to the requested
> frequency as possible without exceeding it. Now that there is a
> clock manager that returns the actual frequencies, an expected
> 48MHz clock is reported as 47999625. If the requested baud rate
> == requested clock/16, there is no headroom and the slight
> reduction in actual clock rate results in failure.
> 
> If increasing a clock by less than 0.1% changes it from ..999..
> to ..000.., round it up.
