For S20_3LE, the width is 20bit,  but the ASRC only support 24bit, if set the
ASRMCR1n.IWD= 24bit, because the actual width is 20 bit, the volume is
Lower than expected,  it likes 24bit data right shift 4 bit. 
So it is not supported.

Hmm..S20_3LE right-aligns 20 bits in a 24-bit slot? I thought
they're left aligned...

If this is the case...shouldn't we have the same lower-volume
problem for all hardwares that support S20_3LE now?

Actually some hardware/module when they do transmission from FIFO
to shift register, they can select the start bit, for example from the 20th
bit. but not all module have this capability.

For ASRC, it haven't.  IWD can only cover the data width,  there is no
Other bit for slot width.

Okay..let's drop the S20_3LE then. But would it be possible
for you to elaborate the reasoning into the commit message
also? Just for case when people ask why we remove it simply.

Thanks
