[PATCH v2 2/3] ASoC: soc-pcm: constrain hw_params when DAIs share the same BCLK

When multiple CPU DAIs on the same sound card share the same physical
BCLK, add a hw_rule during PCM open that constrains the sample rate so
the resulting BCLK rate stays consistent across all sharing DAIs.
The hw_rule is registered unconditionally for every DAI that has a bclk
clock pointer set. The actual peer scanning happens inside the rule
callback at hw_refine time: it walks all DAIs on the card, looking for
an active peer that shares the same physical BCLK (via clk_is_match())
and has already completed hw_params (checked via dai->symmetric_rate
!= 0). This ensures the constraint uses the real BCLK rate established
by the peer's clk_set_rate() in hw_params, not a stale boot-time
default.
The first DAI to complete hw_params is unconstrained (no active peer
yet); subsequent DAIs are constrained to match.
The rule supports two modes:
- If the DAI has an explicit bclk_ratio set (e.g. for TDM where
BCLK = rate * slots * slot_width), the rate is constrained to
active_bclk_rate / bclk_ratio.
- Otherwise, the default formula BCLK = rate * channels * sample_bits
is used to derive the valid rate range.
The constraint is purely additive: DAIs that do not set a bclk clock
pointer are completely unaffected.
