Please send separate patches but in one series. And a question:

Is it possible to update the table? It'd be way quicker to use
lookup table than real-time calculation all the time. I believe
you can simply calculate all the values out for 12KHz and 24KHz
since you have the function. If there are certain combinations
of these two not being supported, then we could mark it with a
special value and add an if-check to error out.

As much comments as possible.

OK...that's sad...

I was confused because the I/O rate lists not getting updated.
It makes sense now if you are abort to update them.
