A small white space nit, there should be a tab and not space to align the equal sign above.
Also this patch do not cleanly apply to drm-misc-next or linux-next after
fc1ca6e01d0a "drm/bridge: dw-hdmi-i2s: add .get_eld support" was merged.

This patch does fix an issue I have observed on my Rockchip devices where audio would not always
came out after switching between audio streams having different rate and channels parameters.
I used to carry [1] to fix that issue, but this seems like a more sane fix.

With above fixed,
