I think this is probably going to need a much more involved fix.
The problem is that there are systems that depend on this
behaviour, so you can't just flat out revert it. And to be fair
the I2S specification says that bit clock can run at a higher
rate than required for the data, so the behaviour is correct as
well.

Probably the best solution here is to add additional contraints
from the machine driver on which rates/bit depths/channels are
supported.

Thanks,
