You should fix the word wrapping in your commit message to be well
within 80 columns.

Since the device only supports I2C you should just unconditionally use
I2C.  You should also use regmap for register access.

This needs either a Playback or Capture in there to match up with the
above unless it genuinely does mute both which would be really weird.

Remove this unless it's actually used in your routing.

This should be a supply widget, MICBIAS widgets are legacy.

Do you *really* have a shift of 0x1f for the enable bit?

The same issue as with your previous submission applies to this function
- you shouldn't have hard coded register write sequences in your code,
the driver should use the facilities of the subsystem to allow the user
to configure it at runtime.  Given how big an issue this is I've stopped
reading at this point.
