Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: DA7219: Fix failure in hw_params by not letting set_rate error out

We need to set minimum bclk 64x of wclk as this is hw constraint in one
of the component used.
Since, clk_set_rate and clk is enabled in machine driver the
clk_set_rate in hw_params of da7219 fails and errors out and when it
tries to override the value.

In cases like these not only clk_set_rate of da7219 codec should fail
and not override the value but also should not error out.

I think this might mask the real issue when setting rate fails.
A more fundamental problem might be what are the acceptable ratios
between bclk and wclk.

From existing code of da7219 I see there are only two choices of
frame_size: 32 or 64.

In da7219_hw_params:
...
if (da7219->master && !da7219->tdm_en) {
if ((word_len * DA7219_DAI_CH_NUM_MAX) <= 32)
frame_size = 32;
else
frame_size = 64;

And in https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/4/17/322
the choice from machine driver is 64 or higher.

In cz_da7219_params:
...
if (bclk < (wclk * 64))
bclk = wclk * 64;
return da7219_clk_enable(substream, wclk, bclk);

I don't know what is the best solution to avoid this conflict.
Maybe just set a fixed ratio from device property that can best work
for the combination of codecs on the machine?

Not doing an error check for clk_set_rate is not rare because
clk_set_rate fails if the clk which you are trying to set is already
enabled. Now we can add a is_prepared check before calling clk_set_rate
but that would be redundant as clk_set_rate does the same check.

acceptable ratios for da7219 from spec are:
00 = 32 BCLKS per WCLK
01 = 64 BCLKS per WCLK
10 = 128 BCLK per WCLK
11 = 256 BCLK per WCLK

da7219 derives this ration from SR for a wclk. The same we do in machine
driver.
Conflict comes only in case of an exception where there is constraint
from a hw component. Else when the audio is played on da7219 codec we
could have let da7219 only set rate and enable clks.
