[PATCH u-boot-marvell 1/5] serial: a37xx: Fix parent clock rate value and divider calculation

From: Pali Rohár <pali at kernel.org>

UART parent clock is by default the platform's xtal clock, which is
25 MHz.

The value defined in the driver, though, is 25.8048 MHz. This is a hack
for the suboptimal divisor calculation
  Divisor = UART clock / (16 * baudrate)
which does not use rounding division, resulting in a suboptimal value
for divisor if the correct parent clock rate was used.

Change the code for divisor calculation to round to closest value, i.e.
  Divisor = Round(UART clock / (16 * baudrate))
and change the parent clock rate value to that returned by
get_ref_clk().

This makes A3720 UART stable at standard UART baudrates between 1800 and
230400.
