Humm, when you use DMICs they are directly connected to the PCH with a 
standard 1-bit PDM. There is no notion of TDM or slot.

It could very well be that the firmware/topology only support 16 bit (I 
vaguely recall another case where 24 bits was added), but the 
description in the commit message would need to be modified to make the 
reason for this change clearer.
