These functions are exported for other drivers to use rather than
something done internally by the driver - if this were internal to the
driver it'd not be a big deal but when it's for use by another driver
it'd be better to go through standard interfaces.

So this needs the SoC to do something as part of callibration?

That sounds like you should just have one output path defined in DAPM
and merge the left and right signals together rather than maintaining
them separately.

Why not just let the user pick at runtime?

If it is just supposed to be left on all the time it's better to do this
in the main device model probe rather than the component probe. The
component probe should usually only be used for things that need the
rest of the card to be there.
