Hmm. I guess we could do this. But plese put it into a separate
function so we don't end up with that super ugly if condition.
The debug message should probably be a bit more explicit. Eg.
something like:
"Firmware using non-standard link rate %d kHz. Including it in sink rates.\n"
I'm also wondering if we shouldn't just add the link rate to the sink
rates regradless of whether it's the highest rate or not...
