The mode should be configured by the dai_drivers set_fmt callback, and not by a control.
I think giving a interface to the user is better option rather than doing it in set_fmt callback.
Why? Both the codec_dai and the cpu_dai have to agree on who is the master and who is the slave. So letting the user select the codec mode instead of defining it in the board driver doesn't make sense, since the setup will stop working if the cpu dai isn't configured to match the codec dais mode. Furthermore you don't want to switch the mode while playback is active and generally you won't even change it at all, once it has been setup.

I guess, it should be mute_reg instead of 00
No, This is value, register is STA529_FFXCFG0
You are always clearing the mute bit, regardless of whether mute is enabled or disabled. snd_soc_update_bits(codec, STA529_FFXCFG0, 0x80, mute_reg); is probably what you want to do.

It can not be. Please check snd_soc_dai_ops structure in include/sound/soc-dai.h
Yes, it can. Maybe you are using an outdated ASoC version. Check line 206 of include/sound/soc-dai.h in Mark's for-next branch.

ARRAY_SIZE(sta529_new_snd_controls));You should use table based controls setup. i.e assign the control table to the 'controls' field of your codec_driver.
You can do it in either way.
Yes, you can, but you should use the codec_driver fields unless you have good reasoning not to.

Your driver doesn't use any DAPM. You should at least define input and output pins and their routing, but I would expect that there is more that can be done, like dynamicly powering unused sections of the codec down, like the DAC or ADC. .
Right now since my driver has not support for DAPM, so definitions for input and output pins are not there.Once I will implement DAPM feature in future I will send separate patch for that.
Currently there is a bug in the ASoC core, which will cause codec drivers without DAPM to be not powered down, even though if they are not used. Given that it will maybe take 5 minutes or so to add basic DAPM (Input/Output pins and ADC/DAC) it would be a good idea to add it to the inital version of the driver.
