Looks like the IRQ handler wasn't servicing fast enough, causing parts
of a frame to get dropped.  Does this only happen when you have a
bunch of streams running in parallel?

This sort of performance issue would be very difficult to debug
without one of the developers having a board.  From what I understand
the code provided by Conexant was merged essentially as-is (with some
codingstyle cleanups and zero testing), with no upstream developers
actually having the hardware.

You're probably out of luck unless you're willing to pay somebody to
get a board and debug the problem.
