As it is done in the soc core, in soc_pcm_open(), the runtime hw_params
are initialized after the call to the CODEC startup, and the next CODEC
event is hw_params() when the user has already chosen all the parameters.

So, in the CODEC, I don't see how I could update the parameters
dictated by the EDID otherwise in changing the DAI driver parameters.
