Your signoff should be last if you're the one sending this.

It feels like this is complicated enough and looks like the
clocking is flexible enough that it might be easier to just have
a table of values or otherwise enumerate standard rates, seeing
the code I feel like I need to worry about what happens if we
pick a clock rate over 6MHz (the loop could give a value over
that), and it's not clear why we have the switch statement rather
than just starting at a multiple of 128 and looping an extra time.

I suspect there's going to be no meaningful downside for having
the clock held at over 3MHz on a tablet form factor, the usual
issue would be power consumption but between the larger battery
size you tend to have on a tablet and the power draw of the
screen if that's on it's likely to be into the noise practially
speaking.
