[alsa-devel] [PATCH 2/2] ASoc: wm8731: add normal mode with 12MHz XTAL

I have realised that this second patch may not be necessary. It is also 
likely that it will skew the actual sample rate.

Charles, can you please advise me on the following...

I notice that I can probably get the correct sample rates by spoofing 
the crystal frequencies in my machine driver. For example ...
The ratio between the USB and Normal mode fs multipliers with BOSR=0 is :
250/256 = 0.97656
Similarly, I can match this with the following crystal frequency ratio 
(crystal f in MHz) :
12/12.288 = 0.97656
By induction, I assume that I can spoof a 12.288 clock with BOSR=0 for 
sample rate = 48kHz, 96 kHz when using a 12 MHz crystal.

Again, I can match ratios between the following crystal frequecies (in 
MHz) :
12/16.9344 = 0.70862
With BOSR = 1, I assume that can get 44.1 kHz and 88.2 kHz because the 
fs ratio between normal and usb mode is :
272/384 = 0.70833

Now these two ratios are skew by 0.41% which is equvalent to the skew in 
12 MHz USB mode clocks of 44.1kHz to 44.118kHz as reported in the  
wm8731 datasheet.

Can you advise me whether my idea of spoofing clocks in the machine 
driver is perhaps a better way of acquiring the correct sample rates, 
rather then this patch ?

thanks
Matt
