In my opinion, for this type of definition, it's better to declare
left/right-adjusted or padding side. (Of course, silence definition is
already a hint, however the lack of information forces developers to
have a careful behaviour to handle entries on the list.)

(I note that in current ALSA PCM interface there's no way to deliver
MSB/LSB-first information about sample format.)

Additionally, alsa-lib includes some codes related to the definition[1].
If you'd like to thing goes well out of ALSA SoC part, it's better to
submit changes to the library as well.
