Thanks, now it makes sense but the commit message needs improvements.
The problem is that current code for .set_ramp_delay() rounds down the
value written to register, while the implementation of
.set_voltage_time_sel() works on original constraints (not rounded down).

Please, fix the message.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
