In my experience too, the channel swap issues got reported only with ASP
(aka McBSP) and not with McASP.

The swap was almost always at the start of playback, and supposedly because
of the errata "2.1.5 ASP: Initialization Procedure When External Device is
Frame-Sync Master" in http://focus.ti.com/lit/er/sprz241l/sprz241l.pdf

Using EDMA acount=4 instead of 2 (32-bit transfers) did fix that issue on the
OSS drivers but I don't recall the problem morphing into an "always channel
swapped" case.

Have you tested your patch (1/3) with DM644x EVM? If not, we can do that and
see if it leads to channels being always swapped on that hardware as well.

One feedback we have received on this solution is that it does not work for
24-bit audio. In which case, implementing the workaround described in the
errata is the only way around.

Thanks,
Sekhar
