[PATCH] i2c: aspeed: fixed invalid clock parameters for very large divisors

[Jae Hyun Yoo]

Hi Brendan,

nit:
Title in imperative mood. I'd put 'fix' instead of 'fixed'.

Yes, it fixes these parameters to the lowest bus speed setting with the
maximum base clock divisor value and the maximum SCL timing cycle value
when a low bus-frequency is requested which exceeds the range of this
H/W supports. This exceptional case handling is needed to prevent making
invalid settings on it. Nice fix!

One minor issue is, 'base_clk_divisor' instead of 'base_clk' could avoid
misreading on this code.

With that, it looks nice to me. Thanks!
