I am unfortunately nowhere near my notes, so can't completely
review this. I think the complexity of my patch series is due
to an issue with the count being updated before the EOC IRQ
is actually flagged (and most definetly before it gets to the
CPU IRQ handler).

The test system I was using, which i've not really got any
access to at the moment would show these internal inconsistent
states every few hours, however it was moving 48kHz 8ch 16bit
TDM data.

Thanks for looking into this, I am not sure if I am going to
get any time to look into this within the next couple of
months.
