Fix rounding in clocks_calc_mult_shift()

Russell King reports:
| On the ARM dev boards, we have a 32-bit counter running at 24MHz.  Calling
| clocks_calc_mult_shift(&mult, &shift, 24MHz, NSEC_PER_SEC, 60) gives
| us a multiplier of 2796202666 and a shift of 26.
|
| Over a large counter delta, this produces an error - lets take a count
| from 362976315 to 4280663372:
|
| (4280663372-362976315) * 2796202666 / 2^26 - (4280663372-362976315) * (1000/24)
|  => -38.91872422891230269990
|
| Can we do better?
|
| (4280663372-362976315) * 2796202667 / 2^26 - (4280663372-362976315) * (1000/24)
| 19.45936211449532822051
|
| which is about twice as good as the 2796202666 multiplier.
|
| Looking at the equivalent divisions obtained, 2796202666 / 2^26 gives
| 41.66666665673255920410ns per tick, whereas 2796202667 / 2^26 gives
| 41.66666667163372039794ns.  The actual value wanted is 1000/24 =
| 41.66666666666666666666ns.

Fix this by ensuring we round to nearest when calculating the
multiplier.
