You are right. I changed the behavior from:
if (pmc->config && !pcm->config->prepare_slave_config)
	<do nothing>
to:
if (pmc->config && !pcm->config->prepare_slave_config)
	snd_dmaengine_pcm_prepare_slave_config()

It was not intended and I agree that the commit message is not accurate. 
I guess some drivers might not need dmaengine_slave_config()...
However, in my case, for the mchp-pdmc driver, I do have pcm->config 
with pcm->config->prepare_slave_config NULL, but I still need 
snd_dmaengine_pcm_prepare_slave_config() to be called. Should we add a 
separate flag to call snd_dmaengine_pcm_prepare_slave_config() if 
pcm->config->prepare_slave_config is NULL?

Nice catch!

Best regards,
Codrin
