The masterclock is physically optional. There are several modes to use
this codec without master clock. The PLL can use different clock inputs,
BCLK, MCLK, etc. and even the PLL is not necessary. Instead BCLK and so
on can be used as direct codec clock input. However, most of this is not
supported by the driver yet and I can't test these cases.

Yes, I fixed this.

Thanks,
