The DB_RANGE need to be used on some HW, since the gain on volume control is not continuous, and has to be divided into several sub DB_SCALE ranges. ASoC has a feature to override the HW default volume range, and in this case when the volume range is less than the HW maximum we do not need to go through the whole DB_RANGE, but we need to stop where the kcontrol's maximum tell us.

Hello,
this patch fixes the ASoC related problem, when the volume is limited by the machine driver on a given control, which happen to have DB_RANGE gain mapping. The DB_RANGE has to have _only_ DB_SCALE type of mapping, since with LINEAR, MINMAX, MINMAX_MUTE it is not possible to accurately calculate the maximum dB limit on the control, when the volume is limited.
Applications like PulseAudio need to know the actual dB range, and not only the theoretical maximum.
