[alsa-devel] HR timer 1000Hz limit since kernel 4.4.0-77

Hello, ever since kernel 4.4.0-77, there seems to be a limit on the ALSA HR timer, I can't set it above 1000Hz (snd_timer_params() fails with -22 invalid argument). I used to be able to set the rate much higher than that. Been observed in two completely different distros, one with a much newer kernel. How can I overcome this limit? Thanks.
