Separate clkout calculations and register writes into two functions:

Please, use struxt u32_fract instead of m/n.
I'm not sure how that helps. The documentation talks about m and n. Using
different terms will make it more difficult to compare the code and the
docs.
You can always add a comment.
(For example in drivers/clk/clk-fractional-divider.c our documentation also
says about m/n, but most of the people understands that this is about
fractional divider and actually with properly spelled parameters it will
help others who are not experts in the CLK hardware.)
Yes, I would agree with you if this was a generic piece of code, but I
don't see the reasoning as valid as this is specific to a piece of
hardware. Here, I think, matching the code to the HW documentation is
more important than possibly making the code more understandable to
people who are not familiar with the HW.
Especially as for non-English people seeing "numerator" and
"denominator" might require a check to figure out which one is which,
whereas m and n are (I would guess) a bit more universal (or maybe it's
just me).
