I don't see how this improves the situation. Does this solve any real
problem?

While I admit to having introduced the combination of 1/3.5 fixed
divider and configurable 1/1,1/2 divder clocks to describe this
fractional divider for the reasons you state, I think the correct
solution would be to improve the table divider to support fractional
values and get rid of the virtual ldb_di<n>_div_3_5 clocks, not
introduce more virtual clocks.
