I thought sample width is determined by the snd_pcm_hw_params. But
maybe I'm mixing up alsa sample width vs sample width on the wire?
I'm leaning towards set_frame_width because that's directly what I
want to do: override pxa_ssp_hw_params' standard decision to use
32-bit frames for S16_LE stereo and set 16-bit frames instead.

Technically there isn't. It just seems much more obvious to me to
write something like:
/* nonstandard: 16-bit frames, even for 2x 16-bit stereo */
if (params_format(params) == ..._S16_LE)
set_frame_size(16);
in the machine driver instead of:
/* nonstandard: 16-bit frames, even for 2x 16-bit stereo
* pxa_ssp_hw_params will check for TTSA==1
* and then set the frame size accordingly
*/
set_tdm_slot(1,1);
especially as I don't really need network mode at all.

Yes. Only for strange nonstandard setups like a flip-flop in the LRCLK
line even DSP mode has to be told that we need two frame clock pulses
per stereo sample.
