The Bay Trail SoC GPO2 pin 4 is connected to the codecs GPIO1 pin,
which is best thought of as the codecs IRQ pin, because that is how
the rt5640 codec driver configures it:

        /* Selecting GPIO01 as an interrupt */
        snd_soc_component_update_bits(component, RT5640_GPIO_CTRL1,
                RT5640_GP1_PIN_MASK, RT5640_GP1_PIN_IRQ);

        /* Set GPIO1 output */
        snd_soc_component_update_bits(component, RT5640_GPIO_CTRL3,
                RT5640_GP1_PF_MASK, RT5640_GP1_PF_OUT);

This may seem to be directly connected to the jack-inserted switch
of the physical jack, but it is not, the IRQ just happens to go
low/high together with the jack state (the IRQ handler is sensitive
to both edges).

But when low (jack inserted), it can go high again even though the
jack is not removed *at all*. This happens on an overcurrent situation
on the mic bias current, which is how heapdhones vs headset are
detected (headphones short the mic contact triggering OVCD). So it
really is a totally different pin from the jack-inserted switch,
it just seems to be directly connected most of the time.

On the ME176C the actual physical jack-inserted switch is connected
to the JD2 aka IN4N pin of the codec and the codec driver checks
for jack-insertion like this:

	val = snd_soc_component_read(component, RT5640_INT_IRQ_ST);

        if (rt5640->jd_inverted)
                return !(val & RT5640_JD_STATUS);
        else
                return (val & RT5640_JD_STATUS);

And the physical jack-inserted switch is *also* connected to
the Bay Trail SoC GPO2 pin 27 (second GPIO resource in the AMCROf28
device), but we ignore that since before this patch-set the rt5640
codec code assumes the switch is always connected to one of the
codecs JD pins.


On the Asus TF103C, the codecs GPIO1 aka IRQ pin is connected
to the Bay Trail SoC's GPO2 pin 4 just like on the ME176C.

What is different is that the jack's physical insertion switch
is *only* connected to the Bay Trail SoC's GPO2 pin 27 and not
connected to any of the codecs JD1/JD2 pins *at all* so we need
to work around that.

I hope this helps explain.

and yes this means that we *could* also use
BYT_RT5640_JD_SRC_EXT_GPIO on the ME176C (and actually on quite
a few BYT devices) but it does not gain us anything,
it is just another method of getting the same information,
since the jack-inserted switch is connected to both the codec
and the Bay Trail SoC.

Hans
