Yup, sounds correct.

I'm not sure what you mean here - do you have more bits than you have
data or is there data that you don't want to record?

The best API for this if the CPU driver supports it is set_tdm_slot()
but it does depend on what the hardware can do and what the driver
supports.  I'm afraid I'm not too familiar with i.MX2x specifics here
(or the particular BSP that you've got).
