No, definitely not; this patch has significant semantic changes since I
reviewed it.

I'm not sure how this can work. Certainly all 3 clocks that are required
for audio are mentioned here. However, the PLL_A clock (which then
trickles down to the other 2) needs to have its rate changed based on
whether the sample rate is 44.1KHz- or 48KHz-based. Semantically, this
can't be something that "simple-audio-card" can imply, since
"simple-audio-card" is something agnostic to any HW, whereas this
clocking requirement is something specific to Tegra HW.
To see the problem, try encoding some audio stream as both 44.1KHz and
48KHz, then play a few seconds of each and keep switching back and
forth. You'll likely find either the playback pitch is wrong, or you get
drop-outs or stuttering.
I also wonder how "simple-audio-card" can know what rate the EXTERN1
clock to the CODEC should be set to; each CODEC has a different
requirement for the minimum clock input and the Fs multiple usually
varies for different sample rates. See for example
sound/soc/tegra/tegra_wm8903.c:tegra_wm8903_hw_params(). This could be a
solved problem though: Perhaps some API has been added to CODECs to
report this information (or perhaps CODEC drivers now clk_set_rate() on
their input clocks themselves) since I last looked.
