divider_ro_round_rate_parent() is an exported function.
There is no parameter check or return value check before 
and after calling _get_div(), which may result in a divide by zero error.

Case1: The "flags" contains CLK_DIVIDER_ONE_BASED, and "val" is 0.
Case2: The "flags" does not contain CLK_DIVIDER_ONE_BASED, 
    CLK_DIVIDER_POWER_OF_TWO, CLK_DIVIDER_MAX_AT_ZERO,  
    "table" is NULL.  "val" is 0xffffffff
In both cases _get_div() returns 0

I found that there may be a divide-by-zero error by code review,
 for example: "flags" is CLK_DIVIDER_ONE_BASED and "val" is 0.
So simply add a return value check to avoid divide-by-zero

thanks for your suggestion, 
I will resend the patch later
refer to your advice and divider_recalc_rate() to add a check for 
CLK_DIVIDER_ALLOW_ZERO

thanks
