What exactly are the modes here? Looking at the web site for the part
it seems like it's selecting a power limit for the speaker so it makes
sense that the mode would be fixed in DT but it's not clear from the
driver.

Are we sure that enable is the best name for this pin? It's more
complex than just an enable since it's the 1 wire data - according to
what's on the awinic web site it looks like the actual label is /SHDN
which is similarly misleading though :/
