Off the top of my head something like writing a control name into a sysfs file might work, it doesn't scale if you need to use multiple controls as rt5640 does though. We could also do something like have drivers make a list of all output stage mutes and then use that to build a standard global mute control which functions similarly to this one and could be force wired to the LED trigger input, seems like a big hammer but it'd be reasonably consistent.
