[RFC/RFT PATCH v2] ASoC: fsl_esai: Revert "ETDR and TX0~5 registers are non volatile"

Commit 8973112aa41b ("ASoC: fsl_esai: ETDR and TX0~5 registers are
non volatile") removed TX data registers from the volatile_reg list
and appended default values for them. However, being data registers
of TX, they should not have been removed from the list because they
should not be cached -- see the following reason.

When doing regcache_sync(), this operation might accidentally write
some dirty data to these registers, in case that cached data happen
to be different from the default ones, which might also result in a
channel shift or swap situation, since the number of write-via-sync
operations at ETDR would very unlikely match the channel number.

So this patch reverts the original commit to keep TX data registers
in volatile_reg list in order to prevent them from being written by
regcache_sync().

Note: this revert is not a complete revert as it keeps those macros
of registers remaining in the default value list while the original
commit also changed other entries in the list. And this patch isn't
very necessary to Cc stable tree since there has been always a FIFO
reset operation around the regcache_sync() call, even prior to this
reverted commit.

Hi Mark,
In case there's no objection against the patch, I'd still like to
wait for a Tested-by from NXP folks before submitting it. Thanks!
