Thanks for directing my gaze to this again. Actually I don't think the SR should
be rounded at all. If it doesn't match exactly it should fail so I'll remove the
rounding here. Not sure what my brain was doing there.

For the BCLK rate, I'll see what checking can be added there to make sure the
word length is compatible with the 'rounded' BCLK rate.
