The only difference in register settings between I2S and DSP mode A, for the SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBM_CFM case, is the start condition (which is SSC_START_FALLING_RF for I2S and SSC_START_RISING_RF for DSP mode A). As this is not the only difference between the two formats, it is an indicator that something is seriously wrong. And it is the I2S support that is broken. While the start condition is correct for the left channel word in the I2S case, it is not correct that the right channel word follows immediately after the left channel word. The start of the right channel word should be triggered by a rising edge on LRCLK in the I2S case, something which simply does not happen. The correct thing to do would be to simply remove the alleged support for I2S/CBM_CFM, but that is likely to cause regressions. So, just make a note about the buggy I2S support in the source.
