Thank you for your feedback. Checking the range make more sense.

We can further optimize it, by checking only the Max range value.

- Remove mbps and min member from struct rcsi2_mbps_reg.
- Update the walk of the array in rcsi2_set_phypll() so that it finds
the first entry where the calculated bit rate is less than the max.

Lower bit rates less than 80Mbps
like 48Mbps(Raspberry pi camera 640x480 connected to Kingfisher)
can also be supported by selecting the lowest default bit rate 80Mbps
as done before this fix.

Please let me know your opinion on the same.
Meanwhile iam working on creating the patch, test it and update the same.
