We recent just merged a new change that auto-selecting internal
clocks based on sample rates as the first option -- ideal ratio
mode is the fallback mode now. Please refer to:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?h=next-20200702&id=d0250cf4f2abfbea64ed247230f08f5ae23979f0

Having a quick review at your changes, I think the DT part may
not be necessary as it's more likely a software configuration.
I personally like the new auto-selecting solution more.

If there's any further change that you feel you can improve on
the top of mentioned change after rebasing, I'd like to review.

Thanks
