After some discussions of the patch last week, here is a new version.
Simply reducing the post_table did not work, as for some frequencies
both settings (MCLKDIV=0 and MCLKDIV=1) are needed (e.g. 96 and 192kHz)


WM8804 can run with PLL frequencies of 256xfs and 128xfs for
most sample rates. At 192kHz only 128xfs is supported. The
existing driver selects 128xfs automatically for some lower
samples rates. By using an additional mclk_div divider, is
is now possible to control the behaviour. This allows using
256xfs PLL frequency on all sample rates up to 96kHz. It
should allow lower jitter and better signal quality. The
behavior has to be controlled by the sound card driver,
because some sample frequency share the same setting. e.g.
192kHz and 96kHz use 24.576MHz master clock. The only
difference is the MCLK divider.

Commit message still needs fixed up, as per Mark's comments on
your last patch. Otherwise looks ok to me.

Charles (or someone else from Wolfson), you commented on previous
versions of this - are you still OK with it?

Sorry about the slight delay travelling with limited internet at

I have tested your patch.
There is a (non blocking) error message regarding .idle_bias_off, but I
assume that should not have something to do with your patch. Can we just
set idle_bias_off to false here?

Otherwise, it looks good to me.

What is the error message? I remember that the first version of this
had an undocumented change to idle_bias_off in it, I expect that needed
to split out into a separate patch rather than dropped.

The idle_bias_off should not be part of this patch. I will check this again.

Yes (making sure that it is actually in that state).

So a better solution would be to set SND_SOC_BIAS_OFF instead of
SND_SOC_BIAS_STANDBY at the end of probe?

I'm sorry for this. Looks like I still had problems with some whitespaces. I will resend the patch and hope, it will work now.
