clk: spacemit: k3: fix missing /2 factor in i2s sysclk dividers
This commit updates the i2s sysclk dividers in the spacemit k3 clock driver to
set pre_div to 2. This accounts for a fixed 1/2 hardware divider after the
configurable divider.

[Severity: Medium]
Does this formula mathematically contradict the driver's implementation?
The code in drivers/clk/spacemit/ccu_ddn.c calculates the rate by multiplying
by den and dividing by num:
drivers/clk/spacemit/ccu_ddn.c:ccu_ddn_calc_rate() {
...
return prate * den / pre_div / num;
...
}
The file's documentation also notes:
* Fin denominator
* Fout = ----- * -------------
* 2 numerator
Could the commit message be updated to reflect the actual hardware behavior?

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but can this lead to a kernel panic due to an
unhandled zero divisor?
In drivers/clk/spacemit/ccu_ddn.c, ccu_ddn_recalc_rate() reads hardware
registers directly:
drivers/clk/spacemit/ccu_ddn.c:ccu_ddn_recalc_rate() {
...
num = (val & ddn->num_mask) >> ddn->num_shift;
den = (val & ddn->den_mask) >> ddn->den_shift;
return ccu_ddn_calc_rate(prate, num, den, ddn->pre_div);
...
}
If the register contains 0 for num, ccu_ddn_calc_rate() will divide by zero:
drivers/clk/spacemit/ccu_ddn.c:ccu_ddn_calc_rate() {
...
return prate * den / pre_div / num;
...
}
Additionally, in ccu_ddn_calc_best_rate(), if the parent rate is less than
ddn->pre_div (for example, if prate is 0), the calculation
prate / ddn->pre_div evaluates to 0. This causes rational_best_approximation()
to set num to 0, which is then passed to ccu_ddn_calc_rate(), again leading to
a division by zero.
Should we add validation to prevent division by zero in these paths?
