Looking at this makes me run away screaming. Just because you
increment priv->ps unconditionally in the loop above, you decrement it
again here. Why not fix the calculation proper in the first place?

      for (cyc = ~0UL, ps = 0, div = HZ; cyc > 0xffff; ps++, div *= 2)
      	       cyc = DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(freq, div);

Hmm?
