This val_bit is only there for debug/test, it should be set to one by 
default and has nothing to do with the lpcm_id. This variable was set 
even in patches before upstream submission and was never needed, I guess 
it must be a 9-yr old issue. Good catch!

BTW looking at the structures in intel_hdmi_lpe_audio.h, the field 
format:3 in audio_ch_status_0 is misleading at best, it should be the 
emphasis if I look at the SPDIF/AES docs. It's not used but I'll have to 
relook at all this when I find some time... We should really set the 
registers to mirror what the aes_bits are, not just the non_audio and 
clock accuracy fields.
