The below case is different. "priv->plat_data->bc_rate" vs
"clk_get_rate(priv->clkin)".

As to the order of the calculation (/ 2 * 160 versus * 160 / 2),
generally speaking, I have never figured out what are the correct ways
to calculate clock rates.

I wrote "x / 2 * 160" as that's what the documentation gives (there's a
hardware /2 divider in non-ub971 chips, followed by a 160 multiplier).
But does the documentation presume that the calculation is done
precisely, not in integers? If so, "x * 160 / 2" would be better (but
then, do we need to round?). Or does the /2 hardware divider basically
actually work as a an integer division, in case "x / 2 * 160" is the
correct one.
