[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: improve MCLKDIV calculation in wm8978, when OPCLK is not used

In case, if OPCLK is not used, and PLL is used for driving the codec, the 
choice of PLL output frequency could result in a needlessly imprecise 
system clock frequency. Use an iterative process to select a precise 
configuration.
