[PATCH v2 3/3] staging: pi433: validate max bit_rate based on modulation used

From: Paulo Miguel Almeida
Date: Mon Jan 17 2022 - 01:02:28 EST


Max bit rate is dependent on which modulation is used. Previous
validation routine only took into consideration min bit rate which can
lead a misconfiguration of the rf69 chip causing the packets not to be
sent/read.

This patch enhances that input check in set_bit_rate to account for
modulation values and their respective max bit rate

Meta-comments:

In the patchset v1 I kept bit_rate argument's original type as I thought that
changing it to accomodate values as high as 300kbps couldn't be part of this
patchset and therefore it should be a separate patchset.

Given that kernel test bot compilation/test process 'complained' about the
argument's type, I decided to send the v2 patch that addresses the data type
problem while I work on the patch that will change bit_rate type across
tx_cfg and rx_cfg as this will require a bit more work.

Please let me know if anyone dislikes the approach and wants me to deal with it
in a different way.
