In ipc4_ssp_dai_config_pcm_params_match() when comparing params_channels()
against hw_config->tdm_slots the comparison should be a <= not a ==.

The number of TDM slots must be enough for the number of required channels.
But it can be greater. There are various reason why a I2S/TDM link has more
TDM slots than a particular audio stream needs.

The original comparison would fail on systems that had more TDM slots.

[1/1] ASoC: SOF: ipc4-pcm: Fix incorrect comparison with number of tdm_slots
      commit: 62a7b3bbb6b873fdcc85a37efbd0102d66c8a73e

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
