I have also at times struggled to understand this.

If someone could just in a very concise form describe how these
rcg[2] clock dividers work and how m,n,d work that'd be GREAT.
ASCII art etc would be a bonus :)

Like with a patch with a big comment in
drivers/clk/qcom/clk-rcg.h

As these tend to be quite regularly reused and incarnated in
ever new silicon a complete picture for developers would be
much appreciated.

Yours,
