The board schematics is not publicly available; some info may be seen in DTS files below:
https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx/tree/arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8mm-evk.dts?h=imx_5.4.24_2.1.0

In examples above the GPIO is handled by machine driver - wrong approach given that
it requires machine driver being probed before codec driver.

Sure, make sense.

Thanks, would appreciate if you point me to the discussion you had.
