Agree, thanks for spotting.

Yep was thinking about that too. Practically DIV_ROUND_UP(pixel_rate, num_vdsc_instances)
means pixel_rate + (2 - 1) / 2 here, so we might get + 1 Khz here. Considering that
values in cdclk_table differ by 1000's of kHz, when we are looking for value which is >=
this is quite unlikely to be a problem.
For this to be a problem we need to have CDCLK to be lets say 345601, then once we divide by
2, we get 172800, which is 345600, if multiplied by 2. 

However we still might want to add that, just to be on safe side.
