[REPOST][PATCH] pm2fb: pixclock setting restriction

From: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@wp.pl>

This patch adds restrictions to calculations of m, n and p factors
which sets the pixclock for the Permedia 2V. I found during tests
that synchronization is unstable if m (divisor) is bigger than
half of the n (numerator). The patch disallows such settings
combination.

---
This patch has fixed range overflow with m > 127 comparing to
previous one.

Regards,
Krzysztof
