Can you elaborate why you set ipg clock as bclk? I don't remember SSI could
derive bitclock from ipg clock.

What I mean is that we cannot just look at this SoC. Today is 66MHz for this
SoC. Tomorrow could be 133MHz for another one. We should put a check that none
of these shall pass -- the 1/5 limit.
