Hi Dan

I'm not sure the helper is implementing the best behaviour. Rounded to
the nearest when within the supported range is O.K. But if the request
is outside the range, i would report an error.

Any why is your PHY special, in that is does care about out of range
delays, when others using new the new core helper don't?
