Thanks for pointing it out. I will add more context in the patch description.

Let me describe the bug for the reviewers who doesn't know the details.

The patch is trying to fix the below bug:
Playback -> pause -> suspend -> resume -> pause release.

When pause release, playback should continue to play. However
we found playback will quit abnormally.

This is because we should restore the registers after S3.
Currently RESUME_INFO flag is not set, so alsa will call prepare()
callback. But as you can see, dpcm_be_dai_prepare() will block
calling prepare() because it lacks of this patch. This means prepare()
of BE will not be called, which is wrong. 

So this patch adds the judgement to let the driver call the prepare()
if the state is SND_SOC_DPCM_STATE_PAUSED. And the state is
SND_SOC_DPCM_STATE_PAUSED because it is paused. Although
S3 happens before pause release, but the state is still in
SND_SOC_DPCM_STATE_PAUSED based on the code of
dpcm_be_dai_trigger().

If RESUME_INFO flag is not set, prepare() will not be called by alsa
after S3. So the patch is not necessary.

Regards,
Libin
