You are right! I forgot to remove this after I found the symmetric_rates flag.
For symmetric_formats I will have a closer look into the ALSA sources.

As implied in the header of this file, I would really like to use the
generic PCM dmaengine driver,
but I would also like to maintain compatibility to the Raspberry Pi
downstream kernel.
Therefore, I have to wait until the downstream kernel migrates to the
new version.

I will have a closer look at these flags. Thanks!
