[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 2/6] clk: rk3399: fix off-by one during rate calculation in i2c/spi_set_rate

For the RK3399, i2c_set_rate (and by extension: our spi_set_rate,
which had been mindlessly following the template of the i2c_set_rate
implementation) miscalculates the rate returned due to a off-by-one
error resulting from the following sequence of events:
  1. calculates 'src_div := src_freq / target_freq'
  2. stores 'src_div - 1' into the register (the actual divider applied
     in hardware is biased by adding 1)
  3. returns the result of the DIV_RATE(src_freq, src_div) macro, which
     expects the (decremented) divider from the hardware-register and
     implictly adds 1 (i.e. 'DIV_RATE(freq, div) := freq / (div + 1)')

This can be observed with the SPI driver, which sets a rate of 99MHz
based on the GPLL frequency of 594MHz: the hardware generates a clock
of 99MHz (src_div is 6, the bitfield in the register correctly reads 5),
but reports a frequency of 84MHz (594 / 7) on return.

To fix, we have two options:
 * either we bias (i.e. "DIV_RATE(GPLL, src_div - 1)"), which doesn't
   make for a particularily nice read
 * we simply call the i2c/spi_get_rate function (introducing additional
   overhead for the additional register-read), which reads the divider
   from the register and then passes it through the DIV_RATE macro

Given that this code is not time-critical, the more readable solution
(i.e. calling the appropriate get_rate function) is implemented in this
change.

Changes in v2:
- fixes an off-by-one for the RK3399 that cause the SPI module input
  clock to be misstated as 84MHz (even though it was running at 99MHz)
