[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 140/165] clk: divider: fix selection of divider when rounding to closest

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Wed Mar 25 2015 - 10:13:58 EST


3.16.7-ckt9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: =?UTF-8?q?Uwe=20Kleine-K=C3=B6nig?= <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 26bac95aa88c2b1747808c0b885abe7814c0165d upstream.

It's an invalid approach to assume that among two divider values
the one nearer the exact divider is the better one.

Assume a parent rate of 1000 Hz, a divider with CLK_DIVIDER_POWER_OF_TWO
and a target rate of 89 Hz. The exact divider is ~ 11.236 so 8 and 16
are the candidates to choose from yielding rates 125 Hz and 62.5 Hz
respectivly. While 8 is nearer to 11.236 than 16 is, the latter is still
the better divider as 62.5 is nearer to 89 than 125 is.
