Well, often there's not much polarity but generally the device will
offer something that can be expressed as a combination of mode A or B
and BCLK inversion.  The Wolfson devices are the way they are mostly to
give them the flexibility to interoperate with whatever the other device
is able to do - there's no reason to select any particular clocking mode
other than for interoperability.
