Though it might not matter any more (see my last comments),
it should be "inrate > 8.125 * outrate" in the comments.

I's thinking of adding it to the top of fsl_asrc_config_pair()
as a part of inrate-outrate-validation, however, I found that
actually we already have a similar check in the early routine:
	if ((outrate > 8000 && outrate < 30000) &&
	    (outrate/inrate > 24 || inrate/outrate > 8)) {
		pair_err("exceed supported ratio range [1/24, 8] for \
			 inrate/outrate: %d/%d\n", inrate, outrate);
		return -EINVAL;
	}

And this is according to IMX6DQRM:
    Limited support for the case when output sampling rates is
    between 8kHz and 30kHz. The limitation is the supported ratio
    (Fsin/Fsout) range as between 1/24 to 8

This should cover your 8.125 condition already, even if having
an outrate range between [8KHz, 30KHz] check, since an outrate
above 30KHz will not have an inrate bigger than 8.125 times of
it, given the maximum input rate is 192KHz.

So I think that we can just drop that 8.125 condition from your
change and there's no need to error out any more.

However, we do need a patch to fix a potential rounding issue:
-	    (outrate/inrate > 24 || inrate/outrate > 8)) {
+	    (outrate > 24 * inrate || inrate > 8 * outrate)) {

Should fix the missing whitespace also. And it will be needed
to send to stable kernel too. Will you help submit a change?

Thanks
