If we have McBSP w/o FIFO there is no need for the qos AFAIK. I'm fine with the 30ms, if you have done the testing on OMAP3.McBSP2, probably setting 30ms for McBSP with 1280 FIFO, 3ms for 128 FIFO and no qos for McBSP w/o FIFO might be better. Or:
latency = mcbsp->pdata->buffer_size * 23; /* 29.44ms on omap3's mcbsp2 */
if (latency) pm_qos_add_request(&mcbsp->pm_qos_req, PM_QOS_CPU_DMA_LATENCY, latency);
OK let me run some tests with that and mcbsp2 fifo set to 128. My guess is that things already work for that case with no patches with the existing fifo based snd_pcm_hw_constraint_step() setting limits low enough so we never enter deeper idle states, but let's see :)
Well not quite so :) The fixed limit of 30 ms also works with fifo set to 128, but we still have audio fail without any patches.
does it fail at start time or later? At start time we will have ~10 DMA bursts of 128 words to fill the FIFO on McBSP2.
The problems start only later on, about 10 seconds into playing of course depending on things like console activity etc.

Yes, we're not hitting retention idle at all during play with FIFO set to 128 words.
