Why not just change the clock parent to something that is more
accurate like the 32k clk?

Without digging into docs, This is just the boot configuration, right?
are we not able to reconfigure?

Please sign-off on you patch. use git format-patch -M -s to generate
patches. and when posting a series, use --cover-letter. Will also be
good to provide tests that show that this is indeed an issue on OMAP5
and DRA7 (considering the $subject here).

These should probably fall in as a separate patch.

we would want to reuse the configuration code previously done, not
repeat the logic.
in general we want the flow to be common - so the point in logic where
num, den is decided is also the place you want this logic to fit in..
