I don't think this is quite the right fix. I don't think we can just
skip assigning "pdata->pwm_refclk_freq". In general I think we're in
pretty bad shape if we ever fail to match a refclk from the table and
I'm not quite sure how the bridge chip could work at all in this case.
Probably that at least deserves a warning message in the logs. There's
no place to return an error though, so I guess the warning is the best
we can do and then we can do our best to do something reasonable.

In this case, I think "reasonable" might be that if the for loop exits
and "i == refclk_lut_size" that we should set "i" to 1. According to
the datasheet [1] setting a value of 5 (which the existing code does)
is the same as setting a value of 1 (the default) and if it's 1 then
we'll be able to look this up in the table.
I think you are right, set i to 1 if i >= refclk_lut_size. I will resend this patch soon.
Thanks for your reply!
