Yes, that is correct, I just did not wanted to go into details.
Currently the ASoC codec driver only supports the BT/FM PCM interface.
Adding the dedicated I2S interface for the FM radio should not be a big
effort, we just need to add another dai to the codec driver, and connect
that to the host processor.
As I said before, we only implemented the BT/FM PCM interface support,
since we do not have HW, where we could verify the dedicated FM I2S
lines. But adding the support should not be a big deal IMHO (and can be
done even without any means of testing it).

It would be better if the codec could handle the configuration,
depending on which DAI is in use. If we can send HCI commands from
kernel, I think that would be the cleanest way.
