You need to read and understand the code before writing any patches.
The '>> p' and '/ (m + 1)' are both just conditional 'divide by 2'.
So can be done before the multiply.
Since req->rate is 'signed long' and the value is a frequency it is
only just possible that it exceeds 31 bits (and will be wrong on 32bit
builds - but sun-9 might be 64bit only?)

In any case it would be sensible to force an unsigned divide.
So perhaps:
	unsigned int n = DIV_ROUND_UP(req->rate, 6000000ul);
	...
	req->rate = ((24000000ul >> p) / (m + 1)) * n;
