[PATCH RFC RFT v2 2/3] clk: divider: add CLK_DIVIDER_INVALID_ZERO flag

[Jian Hu via B4 Relay]

From: Jian Hu <jian.hu at amlogic.com>

When a divider register reads zero, divider_recalc_rate() currently
emits a warning (unless CLK_DIVIDER_ALLOW_ZERO is set) and returns
the parent rate.

This behaviour assumes a zero divisor acts as a pass-through, which
does not apply to all hardware. Some dividers, for example PLL
pre-dividers on Amlogic SoCs, come out of reset with a zero value
that does not produce a usable clock. Returning the parent rate
hides this fault behind an incorrect, plausible value.

CLK_DIVIDER_ALLOW_ZERO only suppresses the warning while still
reporting the parent rate, so it cannot represent this hardware
behaviour.

Add CLK_DIVIDER_INVALID_ZERO for dividers where a zero divisor value
is invalid. When this flag is set, recalc_rate() returns 0, making
the faulty state visible to the clock framework rather than hiding it
as a pass-through.
