The single streams are assumed in the ASoC core so there's not much
concern there.  Without working on the ALSA core itself there's not much
you can do to fully plug all the holes, though.

Oh, nice.  With some care it should be possible to allow at least a
maximum bit rate setting (since lower bit rates are going to be wire
compatible if enough clocks are generated).
