Yes, but there is double negation in this patch. The switch-case
assignments depend on whether the bitclkmaster and framemaster
DT-node pointers are compared to a cpu-dai-node or
codec-dai-node. When your patch compares the codec-node, it does
the decisions like it was a cpu-node, which produces inverted CBM
and CFM setting.

However, Kurinori-san's patch fixes this problem because it just
uses the daifmt generated by comparing to codec node for both cpu
and codec nodes.

The reason why I did the comparison per node basis, was to make
the code more ready for tdm setups with multiple codecs on a same
wire. But writing code for something that is not really needed
yet is usually a bad idea, like it was this time too.

Kurinori-san's version of the fix should be fine and it cleans up
the code quite nicely.

Jyri
