hmm, not necessarily. As I understand the doc DIVIDER_ONE_BASED describes how 
the divider is stored in the register, i.e. if the register value is div-1 or 
div.

When div is 1, it of course means don't divide [rate/1], and CLK_DIVIDER_EVEN 
needs to just make sure that bigger dividers that really divide the rate are 
even values (so limiting the possible dividers to 1 2 4 ...), independent on 
how the divider value is stored in the register.
