[alsa-devel] [PATCH 1/4] ASoC: sgtl5000: give it a ramping time before writting

[Shawn Guo]

Since commit af8ee11 (ASoC: sgtl5000: Fix driver probe after reset),
it's very ofen to run into the following probe error on imx28. It is
caused by the regmap_write() failure in sgtl5000_fill_defaults().
However, the regmap_read() before this has already been working.  It
seems that sgtl5000 takes a longer ramping time to get the registers
ready for write than read.

[    1.991579] sgtl5000 0-000a: sgtl5000 revision 0x11
[    2.021655] mxs-sgtl5000 sound.12: ASoC: CODEC (null) not registered
[    2.039087] mxs-sgtl5000 sound.12: snd_soc_register_card failed (-517)
[    2.046299] platform sound.12: Driver mxs-sgtl5000 requests probe deferral

Fix the regression by giving it a ramping time before the first write.
