[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: eve: implement set_bias_level function for rt5514

No, running the detection does not raise the bias level so the set_bias_level 
will not be called. The mclk is only turned on then off in mixer control's handler 
(rt5514_dsp_voice_wake_up_put) when enabling the hotword detection.

The function checks the name of dapm so it would only react when rt5514's 
bias level is changing. And also the idle_bias_off of the codec driver is true so 
it's target_bias_level should not be overwritten in the dapm_power_widgets() 
function. The behavior should be similar to the previous patch which is using 
supply widget.
