That was the other solution identified; I mentioned it in v1; from v1 cover
letter/discussions:

The other solution that was identified for this was to extend the already
existing mechanism around struct snd_soc_dai_link::stop_dma_first. The downside
of this was that a potential struct snd_soc_dai_link::start_dma_last
would have to be populated on sound card driver thus, had to be taken
into account in all sound card drivers. At the moment, the mchp-pdmc is
used only with simple-audio-card. In case of simple-audio-card a new DT
binding would had to be introduced to specify this action on dai-link
descriptions (as of my investigation).
