OK - I agree: I really should have separated those, but as the
driver was broken for both reasons and the MMU_SHIFT was the earliest
fix I forgot about it when I got the final version for submission.

Anyway: Mark has already applied this patch on January 15th into for-next:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git/commit/sound/soc/bcm/bcm2835-i2s.c?h=for-next&id=517e7a1537ae4663268be5d0c0ec62c563b9fc99
so it should go into the next release...

So unless Mark wants to revert it and have two separate patches
instead, I guess we need to leave it like it is.
