One possible way of improving it which is worthwhile testing
is adding the BYT_RT5640_DIFF_MIC quirk.

Note almost all quirk table entries not using a DMIC mapping have this
set (it is also set in INPUT_DEFAULTS) because it does not really hurt
to enable it, while likely only a few models really have a diff mic.

+1 for just documenting, as long as this device needs a DSDT override
anyways I don't think it is a good idea to add code to the bytcr_rt5640.c
machine driver just to avoid that. If the machine driver is the only
one needing the DSDT override and some code can avoid it then the
balance changes, but for now I believe that just documenting it is
best.
