The usual sample rate possible on an SPDIF link are 32k, 44.1k, 48k, 88.2k, 96k, 172.4k and 192k.
With higher bandwidth variant, such as eARC, and the introduction of 8 channels mode, the spdif frame rate may be multiplied by 4. This happens when the interface use an IEC958_SUBFRAME format.
The spdif 8 channel mode rate list is: 128k, 176.4k, 192k, 352.8k, 384k, 705.4k and 768k.
All are already supported by ASLA expect for the 128kHz one. Add support for it but do not insert it the SNDRV_PCM_RATE_8000_192000 macro. Doing so would silently add 128k support to a lot of HW which probably do not support it.

From what I remember the recommendation is to not add new rates, but use SNDRV_PCM_RATE_KNOT for all rates not included already.
In general yes -- unless the new rate is used for significant amount of drivers.
So this case is a sort of on a border line; if it's only for ASoC SPDIF codec driver, I'd rather implement with an extra rate list instead of extending the common bits (that has some potential risks by breaking the existing numbers). OTOH, if we can take this for further cleanups of the existing requirement of 128khz rate, we can go with it.
