SubjectRe: [PATCH v2 2/2] clk: bcm2835: Minimise clock jitter for PCM clock

"worst" the second time

Simplification suggestion: Remove tmp_rate variable, just assign to
rate_from_divisor result to *avgrate. At the end of the low_jitter
block, just "return *avgrate - max(*avgrate - low, high - *avgrate)".

With that, feel free to add:
