You can totally use i2s without an mclk, but I don't have a specific
explanation as to why this is lacking in this particular pinctrl, as
I cargo-culted it from downstream.

This is actually correct, I believe. The driver has a feature called
"io multiplex" which fiddles with the GRF to dynamically set the pin
directions depending on the hardware parameters. As it happens, for
example sdo1 and sdi3 are on the same pin mux, and can be switched
between like this.

I don't know how well that meshes with upstream's understanding of
pinctrl but in this case the two functions really can use the same
pin.
