I added some traces and verified that accesses to I2S_1/2 fail (as do
PLL_EN accesses) when the chip is in Powerdown mode (pcm512x_suspend
has set the RQPD bit in the POWER register), which it is when
pcm512x_set_fmt runs. During pcm512x_hw_params the chip is in Standby
mode instead (pcm512x_resume has cleared the RQPD bit, but the RQST
bit is set).

So, my patch seems wrong, and the I2S_1/2 accesses instead need to
move to some point where the chip is not in Powerdown mode.

Or, is the problem that pcm512x_set_fmt is called while the codec is
suspended and the chip thus is in Powerdown mode? Because, that
seems problematic to me?

Cheers,
Peter
