The ASoC core will set the constraints for the audio format/rate to the
intersection of what is supported by the CODEC and the CPU DAI. So if the
limitation comes from the CPU DAI the constraints should be applied there
and not in the machine driver. Similar if the tda998x only supports 32 bit
samples it should advertise this and the compound card will only support 32
bit samples.
