Subject: spi: sh-msiof: Avoid invalid clock generator parameters

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@glider.be>

commit c3ccf357c3d75bd2924e049b6a991f7c0c111068 upstream.

The conversion from a look-up table to a calculation for clock generator
parameters forgot to take into account that BRDV x 1/1 is valid only if
BRPS is x 1/1 or x 1/2, leading to undefined behavior (e.g. arbitrary
clock rates).

This limitation is documented for the MSIOF module in all supported
SH/R-Mobile and R-Car Gen2/Gen3 ARM SoCs.

Tested on r8a7791/koelsch and r8a7795/salvator-x.
