I see that it's just additional volume coupling functionality (one control,
set all four output volume/switch registers, right?).

Some points:

1) the separate volume controls don't send change events back to the user
space when the coupled capture settings is applied and versa vice - no sync
2) we have already virtual master API - sound/core/vmaster.c which should
cover this requirement
3) I don't see the purpose for this coupling (the capture direction)

HDAudio is using just 'Capture Switch' and 'Capture Volume' for the root
capture controls plus the input selector (enum). The Master prefix is used
only for the playback direction. And the word master is not prohibited for the
audio context, is it?
