Re: [alsa-devel] [PATCH V1 1/2] ASoC: fsl: esai: refine esai for tdm support

[Nicolin Chen <Guangyu.Chen@freescale.com>]

About the title, please follow the old pattern:

ASoC: fsl_esai: Refine....

You can get the history from 'git log --oneline sound/soc/fsl/fsl_esai.c'

Hmm...although I totally understand what the patch's exactly improving,
I suggest to describe more so that other people can get a quick idea
even without looking at the code, like what the original driver lacks
or what's the problem of the original design, how this patch fulfills
this feature and why some change have to be done, those change in the
header file for example.

Please append a description for the new member to the existing comments
above the structure define.

I prefer not to add indentation here, even thought this doesn't hurt.
Just...If there's going to be a subsequent patch adding a new member
assignment whose name's longer than slot_width, the style'll be broken
as well. For example:
	esai_priv->slot_width = slot_width;
	esai_priv->slots      = slots;
	esai_priv->slot_samplebit = slots;

The indentation for the 'slots' will look abnormal.

This may cause a 'Division by zero' here. The 'slots' is only assigned
in set_dai_tdm_slot(). As default, a machine driver who does not call
set_dai_tdm_slot() will get a zero slot. We must give 'slots' a default
value (2 for example) somewhere during initialization.

And another personal suggestion -- using name 'pins' might be better.

Thank you Shengjiu,
