Yes, that is the problem. The same code in simple-card parses the codec 
node and cpu-dai node and they produce the same SND_SOC_DAIFMT_C??_C?? 
flags for both codec and cpu-dai drivers.

For example:

	simple-audio-card,cpu {
		sound-dai = <&mcasp1>;
	};

causes SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBS_CFS flags to be set to mcasp driver in 
set_dai_fmt() call. So omitting the bitclock-master and frame-master 
parameters from cpu-dai node strangely indicates that the cpu-dai should 
be the bitclock and frame master. Can this be right?

If you do not want to have the inversion, could we at least call the 
parameters codec-bitclock-master and codec-frame-master.
