In case I write a patch for this, is there a preferred approach?

(a) Add a function into alsa core that returns such a list string when
given a rates bitmap, or

(b) export the rates array in core and make the string-giving function a
static one for hda_eld.c, or

(c) add a static function into hda_eld.c that parses the bitmap manually
by checking it for all the hdmi rates (7 IIRC).
