Hi Billy,

Fixes tag?

Also, would be good to call out in the patch description that
CLK_DIVIDER_ONE_BASED rules at 0 as a valid value and hence
avoids the ADC0C[9:0] value of 0 that is causing problems.

That may be obvious to people who make frequent use of clk dividers
but it's not locally obvious when looking at this patch.

Otherwise looks good to me.

Thanks,

Jonathan
