Hi Douglas,

i've tested this as suggested:

and it also works fine.
Should i sent a V2 of this patch series including your approach?

For completeness i've added some printks to the original code to show the
clock values:
1.- Provided adjusted_mode->clock
adjusted_mode->clock (before) = 148500KHz
rate = 148500998Hz
adjusted_mode->clock (after) = 148501KHz <= this is the problematic clock

2.- Overwrite adjusted_mode->clock with the comment's value of 60000.001KHz
adjusted_mode->clock (before) = 60000KHz
rate = 60000998Hz
adjusted_mode->clock (after) = 60001KHz

3.- Overwrite adjusted_mode->clock with your mentioned value of 999.999KHz
adjusted_mode->clock (before) = 999KHz
rate = 999999Hz
adjusted_mode->clock (after) = 1000KHz

Regards,
  Vicente.
