Well, what I'm willing to implement is a way to manually mute the codec
while it is running, independendly from other ways.

I've seen that dai function and untruly believed that those two ways
could peacefully co-exist. But as it turns out, they currently influence
each other, and a manually set mute will be overridden by the next
stream start via the dai function. Which is bad.

I'll send a new patch for that, providing this feature in a slightly
more complex fashion. However, I don't want to remove the other
function. If the soc core decides to mute the codec, it should be able
to do so.
