I think it's worth to have same kcontrol and card names than byt-rt5640 in case this is going to replace byt-rt5640.c since then users can continue to use the same asound.state file. E.g. speakers won't mute because of "Speaker" changes to "Ext Spk".
It would have helped if the DSP controls were not there. The DSP controls need to be routed too, so existing conf files would need to be updated.
So, do you still recommend changing :)
Do new controls affect PCM pass through? I was thinking if they affect only compressed streams then it'd be useful if existing state files continue working for PCM pass through. It's always painful if kcontol name changes render audio muted and user have to go through gazillions of kcontrols :-(
Yes they do and yes we have large number of controls :( Plus there are some algorithms like EQ etc which can be programmed using kcontrols
