They are quite unusual, that's why I reasked. I wanted to know whether
these relationships are indeed due to the hardware limitations, or due
to your driver being too simplistic and allowing only the maximum
supported number of channels for a given sample rate.

I have looked at the source. There are comments mentioning tables 50
and 51. Is that datasheet (for bebob) publicly available?

I guess the best course of action would be to reask on alsa-devel.
