A good catch.

Actually the question is whether we need snd_pcm_limit_hw_rates() call
or not.  The current code in soc_pcm_init_runtime_hw() assumes that
each cpu and codec dais already set the proper rate_min and rate_max,
and narrow the range accordingly.  So basically the call there is
superfluous.  OTOH, in dpcm_fe_dai_startup(), the call overrides the
existing rate_min/max setup as you mentioned, so it may be wrong.

Or, better to ask -- is there any case that snd_pcm_limit_hw_rates()
is mandatory in ASoC?  The snd_pcm_limit_hw_rates() is for setting up
rates_min and rates_max from rates bits.  It's a function to be called
only when we know that rates bits contain the full information and
rates_min and rates_max are bogus.  That is, its overriding behavior
is designed.

OTOH, if the driver sets up already valid rates_min and rates_max
values, there is no need to call this function at all.
