I see, so then my second question was why period needs to be the
larger of the previous period and the requested period.

What happens if the requested period, state->period, is lower than the
old period, ddata->approx_period? Then the period will be changed to
state->period below, but the calculations will be made using period =
ddata->approx_period, right?
