Hi Andrew,

The TDA998x CODEC has two functions:
- it sets the possible formats and rates when the screen connects and
- it sets the audio input port when audio streaming starts.

I tested this CODEC with both DAPM and DPCM. If the audio subsystem
asks for streaming on both I2S and S/PDIF, only the last call is served
(this depends on the order of the DAI links in the audio card creation
table).

As I told to Russell, DPCM just asks for a 'system' DAI (front-end),
but it also asks for some additional code in the kirkwood DMA driver
because all PCMs are activated on streaming start.
