The above entry is for the whole sound subsystem of that SoC.
An entry for I2S driver is above it.

Ok.

Ok, I'll rewrite it.

Ok, I'll document it. I'm synchronizing trigger callback with both interrupt
handler and the tasklet. All that they need to know is whether we're playing
a stream or not, so I protect the stream pointer with RCU. A spinlock for
protection of a single pointer seems too big for me.

I don't know of other designs that use this IP block. Can we do it when
we get such users?

No, there's no way to retrieve the exact FIFO level from the hardware,
there's no such register. But there are two interrupt reasons: one
when the FIFO is below preset level and another when FIFO is empty.
So this code tracks the FIFO level according to the interrupt reason.

IRQ is masked in the I2S controller once we're in the interrupt
handler and is not re-enabled until we're done with FIFO, which
happens at the very end of a tasklet. But if the line could ever be
shared interrupt handler logic that checks if IRQ came from our
device needs an additional check. Thanks for pointing that out.

xtfpga_i2s_push_tx does the right thing based on runtime->sample_bits
value.

Because this callback is said to be potentially called multiple times per
initialization. Is it not?

It controls the divider in the I2S controller that derives I2S bus frequency
from the master clock. The manual basically says 'use the following
equation to determine the ratio value'.

I've tested it in the range of frequencies that we support -- works well.
