This potential bug is found by code inspection.
_get_div() is defined as a static function which is only refered twice 
in drivers/clk/mmp/clk-mix.c. In both cases the return value of _get_div()
 is used as divider without any check.
 If _get_div() never returns 0, then the branch returning 0 is dead code,
or the return value should be check to avoid dividing by zero error.
