This changelog doesn't appear to apply to this patch - it looks like
was copied from the previous one?  This patch appears to suffer from a
similar issue where only the first format set by an application can ever
be used, though since this changes the constraints that are set by the
driver there's no possibility that applications will end up trying to
use a sample format that the hardware is not configured for.

Do we really need such a heavy handed fix here - what is the issue
that's being fixed?
