Some boards, such as the HiFiBerry DAC+ Pro, use a pair of external oscillators, to generate 44.1 or 48kHz multiples and are forced to resort to hacks [1] in order to support 24-bit data without ending up with fractional dividers. This patch allows the machine driver to use 32-bit frames for 24-bit data to avoid such issues. Although the datasheet (p. 15) seems to suggest that only a handful of ratios are supported, it's not very explicit about it, so we allow the full range of values supported by the underlying register in the callback, to avoid needlessly rejecting potentially usable configurations.

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.
