You have it already. I mean it should be fractional divider clock.

stm32port->clk = devm_clk_get(&pdev->dev, NULL);
+
+ if (WARN_ON(IS_ERR(stm32port->clk)))
+ return -EINVAL;
+
+ /* ensure that clk rate is correct by enabling the clk */
+ clk_prepare_enable(stm32port->clk);
+ stm32port->port.uartclk = clk_get_rate(stm32port->clk);

Remove custom implementation of the calculations. It will be just one
line to refresh the baud rate. I think we have a lot of duplicates
here and there in the kernel. It would be nice not to bring another
one.
