Can you provide details about your testing here? What is the parent clk
rate? Which settings did you test? Can you confirm my claim that the
above sequence would fail or point out my error in reasoning?

OK, then not only the code is wrong, but also my suggestion was. :-)

This still stands. It makes it easier to get the code right and makes it
easier to understand.

Best regards
