Please try to keep your CC lists reasonable - only CC people who have an
interest in the patch you're posting.  The CC list you have here is far
too broad, I can't figure out why a lot of the people there ended up
there.  If you've got 10 people that's generally a warning sign.

Overall this looks good but there are a few smallish issues below:

You've got a lot of weird indentation with the second line of multi-line
if conditionals massively further indented than I'd expect.  These
conditionals all also seem more complex than they should be - the fact
that you're using so many !slave_modes makes me think that you should
have a flag for master mode and...

...especially with things like this the indentation makes it hard to
tell what bits go together.

Please write normal if statements unless there's a strong reason to use
the ternery operator.

Being in right justified mode *does* have an effect - it changes where
the audio data starts relative to LRCLK.  It is true that if the frame
has exactly the right number of clocks left and right justified are
identical but extra clocks are in general permitted so it looks like
your right justified case above just isn't something the device really
supports.

Please print the error code as well, it may help people understand the
problem.

You should enable runtime PM before registering the CODEC since the core
can do runtime PM operations and if it tries before runtime PM is
enabled things will get unbalanced.

This doesn't look like it should be driver specific - what's driver
specific about it?
