When I've written this patch, I've looked at how linux does it (and
it's history) and I'm sure you know that linux has two drivers, for
sun4i and sun6i/sun8i. Somehow u-boot conflates them into one with
just one being correct with the SPI_CLK in the CDR2 case (?).
But anyway, this is about CDR1 and it seems you're right. But OTOH
I've tested this briefly with "sf probe 0:0 <hz>" and looked at the
SCK frequency of the readid command with a scope and it was always
less than my requested frequency. At least after the second probe
(there must be another bug which will still keep the frequency of
the probe at the former speed). Soo.. I'm not sure. Mh.
While this might be a bug, it doesn't affect this patch which will
just make sure we can get a 1:1 ratio on SoCs where this is
possible, i.e. not on the sun4i variant.
