You are right, the AUD PLL frequency adjustments would break the bluetooth's 
operation. I double checked and in the downstream kernel only one AUD PLL 
frequency can be set - 196608009. So I will drop this patch and add just
a single PLL_36XX_RATE() entry for that frequency, the PMS values have been
confirmed by the HW team. Only 48000/9600/192000 sample rates will then be 
supported natively and others could be through software rate conversion.
