This patch simplifies the bcm2835_i2s.c code when the driver returns
error on mono channel requests. It does this by testing for mono
instead of using a switch statement to test for stereo.

The bcm2835_i2s driver can only work in stereo mode. Whilst leaving
the driver entirel compliant with the I2S protocol, it simplifies the
code by removing a few redundant lines of code.

I'm against this, it removes the semantics that I2S can only do 2
channels from the code part. Without looking at the rest of the code
one could get the impression that bcm2835-i2s could support all
layouts except 1 channel.


The comment clearly states :

	/*
	 * Check we aren't setting channel 2 on a mono stream.
	 * We currently only support stereo
	 */

How could anyone possibly think that it would support "all layouts except 1 channel" ?

I have reduced the clock cycle count to implement the same logic in code. I have clearly indicated that we ONLY support stereo channel counts.

In my opinion this code is simpler, easier to read and makes more sense.

thanks
Matt
