This affects all TDM I2S modes, i.e. TDM Normal, TDM Left Justified and TDM 
Right Justified.

Without tdm-fsync-half-frame, we purportedly get the following output in TDM 
Normal Mode (I2S Format):
(ch0l = channel 0 left, ch0r = channel 0 right)

fsync: 	_____________________________
                     	            \____________________________
sdi/sdo: ch0l, ch0r, ..., ch3l, ch3r,  ch0l, ch0r, ...

With tdm-fsync-half-frame, we purportedly get the following:

fsync: 	_____________________________
                     	            \____________________________
sdi/sdo: ch0l,  ch1l,  ch2l,  ch3l,   ch0r,  ch1r,  ch2r,  ch3r

At least, according to the TRM. I do not have an oscilloscope to verify this 
myself, and in the following paragraphs, I will elaborate why this seems 
confusing to me.

The comment block "DAI hardware signal polarity" in soc-dai.h seems to imply 
that what the TRM says the tdm-fsync-half-frame mode is (if one inverts fsync 
polarity of those waveforms), is what is expected:

I don't know if this is only applicable to non-TDM I2S, and whether it's 
normal to have the channels interleaved like that in TDM.

I don't see any DAIFMT that does what this does in any case.

So to answer the question, it's not part of the bus format because it applies 
to three bus formats, and I'm completely out of my depth here and wouldn't 
define three separate bus formats based on my own speculation of how this 
works.
