I am referencing the manual linked from the linux-sunxi wiki, section 7.4.5.7:

https://linux-sunxi.org/images/4/46/Allwinner_H6_V200_User_Manual_V1.1.pdf

    For 24-bit received audio sample:
    Mode 0: RXDATA[31:0] = {FIFO_O[23:0], 8'h0}
    Mode 1: Reserved

Since the manual is wrong, could you please add a comment? Something like "The
hardware supports FIFO mode 1 for 24-bit samples, even though the H6 manual
describes that combination as reserved."

Samuel
