Reviving this question after two years :).

After "ASoC: codec: wm8960: Relax bit clock computation" patch

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9636769/

we can now support S20_3LE for round rates like 8000, 16000,
32000 and 48000.

But not for 11025, 22050, 441000. Do you think it's worth exploring
"tdm slot" idea? I don't know exactly what it implies.

Another idea, is to completely remove support for S20_3LE since it
is not trivial to derive bitclk from sysclk.

What do you guys think?

Daniel.
