I'm sorry, but this is wrong. The actual bug is not in s_fmt but in try_fmt.

try_fmt is not actually attempting to 'try' the format, but it just gets the
current subdev settings.

Instead it should do what s_fmt is doing, except for actually setting the format.

Frankly the am437x code is a bit of a mess in how it implements try and s_fmt.

Now, I am going to merge this patch anyway since it is clear from the code
that &format was intended. But this code certainly needs some more TLC since
this patch only addresses a small part of a much bigger problem.

Regards,

	Hans
