How would anyone know that these values are real clk_adjust/2 ?

Of course this is a bug that many will keep falling into! Costing lots
of time to find too.

Just fix it and adjust old boards by doubling their values instead as a minimum fix.

I will adjust our value with /2 know that I know this bug and that be done.
