That is not good.

OK.

OK. Will do the below change in next version.

-	new_upper_limit = (new_clock << i) + ((new_clock << i) >> 10);
 	for (i = min(9, ilog2(UINT_MAX / new_clock)); i >= 0; i--) {
 		freq = clk_round_rate(ref_clk, new_clock << i);
+		new_upper_limit = (new_clock << i) + ((new_clock << i) >> 10);
 		if (freq > new_upper_limit) {
 			/* Too fast; look for a slightly slower option */
 			freq = clk_round_rate(ref_clk, (new_clock << i) / 4 * 3);
-			if (freq > (new_clock << i))
+			if (freq > new_upper_limit)
 				continue;
 		}
