SubjectRe: [PATCH] spi: cadence-quadspi: Add upper limit safety check to baudrate divisor

This will fix the overflow of the divisor but it means that we'll be
generating a faster clock than the device asked for which might lead to
problems. We should at the very least warn, though returning an error
would be safer. Ideally we'd be able to adjust the input clock to the
SPI controller to allow us to divide out an appropriate clock but that's
more disruptive.
