[PD] Update cyclone maintenance

[Fred Jan Kraan]

Hi Jan,

Thanks for pointing this out. I had seen the logic juggling with
RAMPSMOOTH_GEOMETRIC and RAMPSMOOTH_LINEAR, but hadn't came to the
conclusion the default behaviour was incorrect. I changed the code for
now, but could make the change possible at run-time, as it was intended.
But as we already have [slide~] for this, it is not very needed.


Greetings,

Fred Jan
