commit 3b7f9dbb827ce8680b98490215e698b6079a9ec5 upstream.
The XADC supports a samplerate of up to 1MSPS. Unfortunately the hardware
does not have a FIFO, which means it generates an interrupt for each
conversion sequence. At one 1MSPS this creates an interrupt storm that
causes the system to soft-lock.
For this reason the driver limits the maximum samplerate to 150kSPS.
Currently this check is only done when setting a new samplerate. But it is
also possible that the initial samplerate configured in the FPGA bitstream
exceeds the limit.
In this case when starting to capture data without first changing the
samplerate the system can overload.
To prevent this check the currently configured samplerate in the probe
function and reduce it to the maximum if necessary.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
