As mentioned in the commit message, this is what TDA998x does today,
and I have to assume that the contributor tested this, who seems to
be one Jyri Sarha in commit 95db3b255fde ("drm/i2c: tda998x: Improve
tda998x_configure_audio() audio related pdata").

If we don't do it this way, then converting TDA998x to use this
defaulting would change the already established behaviour.  As there
are no users of this by hdmi-codec implementations, and as there are
no callers of snd_soc_dai_set_bclk_ratio(), the only way to maintain
the current behaviour in TDA998x is to either place a default in
hdmi-codec.c, or to have hdmi-codec.c pass zero into TDA998x and have
that encode the above.

I would much rather every user of hdmi-codec gained support for
snd_soc_dai_set_bclk_ratio() rather than relying on that default, but
that is beyond what I can do - I don't have the knowledge of which
sound setups would need it, and I don't have any platforms that are
configured to use I2S with TDA998x.

The Dove Cubox has spdif and i2s but is setup to use spdif (since
that is the most flexible, supporting compressed audio.)  I've a large
pile of unsubmittable patches there which makes kirkwood use DPCM, as
they would end up breaking all the existing users, and from what I can
see there's no way around that.  That makes submitting a patch to add
snd_soc_dai_set_bclk_ratio() very difficult.  That said, the above
defaults are not correct for kirkwood-i2s - that always uses bclk
running at 64fs, as per the TDA998x code prior to your patch I mention
above.

ARM Juno has two TDA998x, but the DT description lacks any audio
description, so it's not clear whether these are even wired.

The ARM MPS platform has a TDA998x connected to a HDLCD, but the HDLCD
does not have an interrupt - and the DRM driver requires an interrupt.
The conclusion that was come to there is basically "don't even bother".
Also unknown whether audio is wired up.
