The slave nodes receive the A2B clock from the master node and then
produce digital audio output that is sent to other components such as
codecs. Hence, in ASoC terms, they are the clock master.
Likewise, as the master node is receiving its clock from other
components, it has to be a clock slave in the audio network.
Does that make sense?

Yes. But I admit this needs some more testing. We're still working on
the hardware that uses this. I'll revisit this.
And I'll also add a lot more comments all over the place, as also
requested by Lee.
Thanks,
