[PATCH v3 1/2] clk: divider: Add CLK_DIVIDER_EVEN flag support

CLK_DIVIDER_EVEN is used for clock divders that should only
use even number in the div field.

Two clock divder should consider to use this flag
(1) The divder is physically only support even div number to
generate 50% duty cycle clock rate.
(2) The divder's clock consumer request it to use even div number
to generate the most closest requested rate for whatever reason.

In some platforms, for instance Rockchip, the eMMC/SDIO/SDMMC should
request divder to use even number when working at a high throughput
speed mode reliably. However, that wasn't guaranteed by clock framework.
So the previous tricky is to carefully assign magic clock rate to their
parents as well as consumer's clock rate when requesting. That works
bad in practice if folks change the parents clock rate or the clock
hierarchy randomly. That also work bad if the consumer's clock rate
came from the DT, which is changed so fraquent for different boards.

To make it's less prone to make mistake and to make it really respect
the fact that the divder should use even number to the div field, we
need the clock framework's help. Now we have CLK_DIVIDER_POWER_OF_TWO,
which could guarantee the div field is even number, however, obviously
it skips the even numbers which isn't the power of 2, but maybe which is
the best div to generate closest clock rate for consumer.

Look at the examples here when doing some random test on Rockchip's
platforms, by changing the requested clock rate from DT, namely
assigning different max-frquency for MMC node,

when the mmc host driver requests 80MHz with CLK_DIVIDER_POWER_OF_TWO
flag for the clock divder, it shows the final clock rate is 61.44Mhz

pll_vpll0		1		1 983039999     0   0
   vpll0		4		4 983039999     0   0
     clk_emmc_div       1		1 122880000     0   0
	clk_emmc	1		1 122880000     0   0
	  emmc_sample	0		0  61440000	0 155
	  emmc_drv	0		0  61440000	0 180

With this patch and add CLK_DIVIDER_EVEN flag for clk_emmc_div, we get
the final clock rate, 67.7376MHz.

pll_vpll1               1		1 812851199	0   0
   vpll1                2		2 812851199     0   0
     clk_emmc_div       1		1 135475200     0   0
	clk_emmc	1		1 135475200     0   0
	  emmc_sample   0		0  67737600     0 113
	  emmc_drv	0		0  67737600	0 180

Apprently 67737600 is better than 61440000 when requesting 80MHz.
Of course, we could have more case that worsen the gap between
the desired rate and the actual rate if using CLK_DIVIDER_POWER_OF_TWO.

Alternatively, clk_div_table could be resorted to handle different kinds
of div limilation, and it seems to be applied to irregular div calculation
in practice by current clock provider drivers, but even number for div
field is a rather common, regular and symmetrical requirement. So it is
worth to introduces CLK_DIVIDER_EVEN flag for clock framework to make
the best in this process.

Changes in v3:
- Fix a wrong if condition check

Changes in v2:
- Avoid to use div 1 if (CLK_DIVIDER_EVEN | CLK_DIVIDER_POWER_OF_TWO)
  suggested by Heiko. And seems actually no other flags should be bothered
  by this newly added CLK_DIVIDER_EVEN.
