[ Upstream commit f86f58e3594fb0ab1993d833d3b9a2496f3c928c ]

According to the SGTL5000 datasheet [1], the DAP_AVC_CTRL register has the following bit field definitions:

| BITS | FIELD | RW | RESET | DEFINITION | | 15 | RSVD | RO | 0x0 | Reserved | | 14 | RSVD | RW | 0x1 | Reserved | | 13:12 | MAX_GAIN | RW | 0x1 | Max Gain of AVC in expander mode | | 11:10 | RSVD | RO | 0x0 | Reserved | | 9:8 | LBI_RESP | RW | 0x1 | Integrator Response | | 7:6 | RSVD | RO | 0x0 | Reserved | | 5 | HARD_LMT_EN | RW | 0x0 | Enable hard limiter mode | | 4:1 | RSVD | RO | 0x0 | Reserved | | 0 | EN | RW | 0x0 | Enable/Disable AVC |

The original default value written to the DAP_AVC_CTRL register during sgtl5000_i2c_probe() was 0x0510. This would incorrectly write values to bits 4 and 10, which are defined as RESERVED. It would also not set bits 12 and 14 to their correct RESET values of 0x1, and instead set them to 0x0. While the DAP_AVC module is effectively disabled because the EN bit is 0, this default value is still writing invalid values to registers that are marked as read-only and RESERVED as well as not setting bits 12 and 14 to their correct default values as defined by the datasheet.

The correct value that should be written to the DAP_AVC_CTRL register is 0x5100, which configures the register bits to the default values defined by the datasheet, and prevents any writes to bits defined as 'read-only'. Generally speaking, it is best practice to NOT attempt to write values to registers/bits defined as RESERVED, as it generally produces unwanted/undefined behavior, or errors.

Also, all credit for this patch should go to my colleague Dan MacDonald dmacdonald@curbellmedical.com for finding this error in the first place.
