I can take the patch as is, but would you like to keep runtime->rate
max check also in the case with substream->wait_time set?

Also, substream->wait_time isn't cleared at each open, right?
The driver can do it if wants, and the driver can set statically at
creation time if wants, too.


thanks,

Takashi
