Yes this is the case on STI platform, CTS is computed by hardware. In
this case hdmi driver only takes into account the N value.

In HDMI specs i only see a double value for 32 kHz with TMDS clock at
74.324  MHz. I can add a  alt_CTS params in hdmi_audio_n_cts that will
be not null if alternate a value is needed. Is this something reasonable
for you?
As also suggest Mark, i need to add all the restriction info in code.

Yes, need to use intermediate 64 bits variable for calculation
