Right, that's what the code does but why is this something that
should
be controlled in this fashion?
This machine driver is common for TDM mode and I2S mode, user can
select TDM
mode or I2S mode.
Why would the user choose one value or the other, and why would this
choice be something that only changes at module load time?  If this is
user controllable I'd really expect it to be runtime controllable.
You're not explaining why this is a module parameter.
Different vendors/OEM's use the same hardware as one need I2S mode and
other need TDM mode, using common driver  to support  I2S and TDM mode
with this parameter.


static int tdm_mode = 0;
module_param_named(tdm_mode, tdm_mode, int, 0444);

And this can be runtime controllable by setting permissions as 0644, we
will change and send next version patch.
kernel parameters are difficult to manage for distributions using a
single-build. Either all platforms use the kernel parameter or none of
them do. That would not allow a per-platform choice of parameters.
Using DMI quirks or ACPI identifiers would be a lot less problematic, no?
All platforms use the kernel parameter to select the I2S/TDM mode.
Runtime parameters are not required here, by default it is in I2S mode and
when the platform needs to enable TDM mode then pass tdm_mode module
parameter as 1.
How would a distribution decide to set this kernel parameter, what
criteria would be used to determine that the TDM mode is required?
You've got to think of who uses that parameter.
This may work for a Chrome solution given that there are per-product
overlays but won't work in the general case IMHO.

Thanks for your time and  suggestion.

We will come back with DMI quirks.
