Well, that was of course expected, without a real clock plan this
driver was only taking into account Oleksij Rempel suggestions to try
to make a driver good enough to properly be maintained :).

Thanks for the link, I see there are three more clocks there with
frequencies of 125, 250 and 270 Mhz. all of them having main xtal as
parent. Ok, I will take this real information into account and will
send v2 after a bit of more feedback comes.
