I'm afraid I just found this commit breaks audio capture on the RK3308.

Using 'arecord -Vmono -d 2 -c 8 -f S16_LE -r 96000 /dev/null' I get:

  rockchip-i2s-tdm ff320000.i2s: ASoC error (-22): at snd_soc_dai_hw_params() on ff320000.i2s
   ff320000.i2s-rk3308-hifi: ASoC error (-22): at __soc_pcm_hw_params() on ff320000.i2s-rk3308-hifi

Tested on:

 * Radxa Rock Pi S
 * Upstream kernel
 * arm64 defconfig

Tested kernel versions:

 * v6.12 works
 * 5323186e2e8d (this commit) fails
 * 5323186e2e8d^ works
 * 21cfbeae7d7c (same patch on stable/linux-6.12.y) fails
 * 21cfbeae7d7c^ works
 * v6.19 fails
 * v6.19 + 'git revert 5323186e2e8d' works

I don't have more information at the moment.

I'm the author of commit 9e2ab4b18ebd mentioned in the 'Fixes:' tag, so it
would have been good to Cc me. I would have had the option of testing your
patch and this regression could have been solved before getting in
mainline. I think b4 does it automatically (and perhaps get_maintainers
with appropriate flags).
