Well, that looks like a bug in either simple-card or it's configuration
which should be fixed then (you should probably use audio-graph-card for
new things BTW). If a machine driver just randomly sets a clock rate
that the system can't support and doesn't want then that's a problem,
presuambly it's getting that rate from somewhere. Note that this is the
machine driver trying to set a clock rate, not the core.
