Unfortunately the patches that "fix" support on the A83T actually break it.
The confusion stems from the user manual not actually documenting the I2S
controller. Instead it documents the TDM controller, which is very similar
or the same as the I2S controller in the H3. The I2S controller that we
actually support in this driver is not the TDM controller, but three other
I2S controllers that are only mentioned in the memory map. Support for this
was done by referencing the BSP kernel, which has separate driver instances
for each controller instance, both I2S and TDM.

Now to remedy this I could send reverts for all the "A83t" patches, and
fixes for all the others that affect the A83t quirks. However the fixes
tags existing in the tree would be wrong and confusing. That might be a
pain for the stable kernel maintainers.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?
