[lvc-project] [PATCH v5] clk: mvebu: Prevent division by zero in clk_double_div_recalc_rate()

It is not known exactly what values can be contained in the registers
at the addresses DIV_SEL0, DIV_SEL1, DIV_SEL2, so the return value of
get_div() can be zero.

The documentation does not describe the behavior of hardware when
receiving a zero rate divider, so add warning assertion and bail out
with a default value if it is violated to prevent division by zero.
Non panic_on_warn systems would at least survive in this case but
still have a valuable trace. The warning assertion would state in
the code that the condition is very unexpected and most probably
won't ever happen but not 100% sure because it depends on hardware
behavior.

v3: fix indentation
v2: added explanations to the commit message and printing 
of an error message when div==0
