ASoC: sun8i-codec: Add a comment on the LRCK inversion
The current code might be a bit intriguing without having experienced the issue before, and might come up as a mistake. Make explicit what's going on by adding a comment. Signed-off-by: Maxime Ripard <maxime.ripard@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>
