This driver needs a very substantial rework to fit within the relevant kernel frameworks, even from a coding style level it's clearly not well integrated kernel code and the integration with several kernel frameworks all look to need rework.

Please make the entire comment a C++ one so things look more intentional.

Given that it's still 2022 I rather doubt the 2023 copyright, though I guess we'll see some changes in 2023...

This isn't how we generally do drivers in Linux, we expect the device settings to be controlled via the ALSA userspace and kernel APIs. Downloadable firmwares are of course OK, and there are things like coefficient data which are naturally binary data, but normal device control should be done via the standard interfaces. Some of this does look like it might fit with firmware stuff but I'm not clear that it's all of it and the code generally doesn't look like it's trying very hard to fit within the standard kernel frameworks.
Given this I've not read too far into the driver, just skimmed it.

Let request_firmware() figure this out.

Please follow the kernel coding style for naming things, this makes it quite hard to read a lot of the code.

- 0x00, 0x4D, 0x9A, 0xD7, 0x79, 0x34, 0xE3, 0xAE,
We have lib/crc8.c.

audev?

These are pointless, remove them.
+static const struct regmap_config tasdevice_regmap = {
- .reg_bits = 8,
- .val_bits = 8,
- .writeable_reg = tasdevice_writeable,
- .volatile_reg = tasdevice_volatile,
- .cache_type = REGCACHE_FLAT,
- .max_register = 1 * 128,
+};
Given that the device has pages and books which aren't modelled here I can't see how a cache is going to work well, though since the driver marks every register as volatile it'll never do anything.

This is adding a DT binding, the DT binding must be documented but is not.

This is just a straightforward register read, I don't see why it's not using the standard helpers.

This appears to be trying to open code some mechanism for tying multiple devices together. Don't do that, if that feature is needed implement it at the framework level rather than trying to open code it in the driver.
The function is also failing to generate events, running mixer-test on a card with the device included should show this and potentially other issues.
+static int tasdevice_hw_params(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,

This doesn't actually appear to interact with the device which means it won't actually do anything. This is a problem with a lot of the callbacks.

Drivers really shouldn't be peering inside irq descriptors, if you need to do this it generally indicates that whatever is done is a bad idea.
dev_info(tas_dev->dev,"### irq already enabled\n");
Please don't spam the logs in normal operation, this is a problem throughout the driver.
+static int tasdevice_mute(struct snd_soc_dai *dai, int mute, int stream) +{

mute is not a power management function, it should mute and unmute only. Power managment should be integrated with DAPM.

Why this delay?

Please just put the DT properties into the code directly rather than adding a layer of indirection liek this, look at what other drivers do.

Is the device really so unstable that it always needs multiple attempts to do any I/O?

regmap has generic support for register paging, use it.
