I found that this patch is not enough to have proper audio working
on an Exynos5800 Peach Pi. Even playing a simple wav does not work:

$ time aplay -D sysdefault /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav 
Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono

real	0m1.138s
user	0m0.005s
sys	0m0.005s

This should be ~1.5 seconds so audio is processed faster than expected.

So something else besides making the CLKOUT to provide a valid frequency
for the codec's master clock is needed.

Do you know what's missing in mainline? For instance, I see that the
sound/soc/samsung/snow.c ASoC machine driver doesn't have a hw_params
but I'm not that familiar with ALSA to know if that makes sense or not.

Also, do you know if the "simple-audio-card" can be used instead for
snow and peachs as it is used for other Exynos5 boards or a specific
ASoC machine driver is really needed for these Chromebooks?
