Thanks :)

Hmm, that might be better, yes.

Hmm, OK, how should I solve this?

OK, I'll look into this.

Is there already support for this in the core?

Yes, different customers have different regulators tied to the different mics.
E.g. VMIC1 can be used with MIC2 etc. These settings are stored in a DB in
userspace and therefor we have it as a control reachable from userspace, but I
see the point that this could also be put in the mach-folder and thus fixed
during build-time.

This is a way of selecting what clock is to be used during a plaback/capture.
It cannot direclty turn on/off the clock because this is not allowed for
power-saving reasons. Also, it needs to be accessible from user-space as we have
code in user-space which makes this decision during runtime.

This information is also stored as parameters in the database, which customers
can control. I could hard-code the value in the machine-driver...

The same goes here... customers set this value in the database to match their
board-design. It is not a matter of being able to reconfigure this during
runtime but it is stored in the database, being one common place for most
settings; runtime or one-time-settings.
Also this could be put as a hard-coded parameter in the machine-driver.

For the moment we need to be able to change what slots in the I2S-IF is mapped
to what AD/DA. In the future we might change it so that it can be fixed in the
kernel-space world, though.

We never change these values, but I could put them as platform-data.

OK.
