Fix the calculation of load_value and match_value. Currently they
are slightly too low, which produces a noticeably wrong PWM rate with
sufficiently short periods (i.e. when 1/period approaches clk_rate/2).

Example:
 clk_rate=32768Hz, period=122070ns, duty_cycle=61035ns (8192Hz/50% PWM)
 Correct values: load = 0xfffffffc, match = 0xfffffffd
 Current values: load = 0xfffffffa, match = 0xfffffffc
 effective PWM: period=183105ns, duty_cycle=91553ns (5461Hz/50% PWM)
