[PATCH 08/13] clk: divider: stop early if an optimal divider is found

[Benjamin Bara]

From: Benjamin Bara <benjamin.bara@xxxxxxxxxxx>

During finding the best divider, the current implementation asks the
parent for the best rate for all its available dividers. If there are a
lot of supported divider values and the maximum divider is far from the
target rate, this can lead to many iterations. Depending on the parent,
the process of calculating the best fitting rate can be quite complex.

Therefore, return early if an optimal divider has been found.
