[Sorry for the top-post]

I think this makes sense. Please submit a formal patch, thanks.

Subject: [RFC] sgtl5000: check VDDD-supply instead of revision

Hi,

I am using a SGTL5000 rev 0x11 with external VDDD, as recommended by NXP
documentation and errata sheet:
http://cache.nxp.com/files/analog/doc/errata/SGTL5000ER.pdf
The linux sgtl5000 codec driver contains a comment, warning that
external VDDD can't be used on revisions >= 0x11, which is probably a
leftover from the first implementation. This is very confusing because
it contradicts the NXP documentation.
Also, on every boot, the user gets a warning that the SGTL5000 is using
the internal LDO (even though external VDDD is present).

Maybe instead of checking the revision, we should only check if the
VDDD-supply regulator exists and only if it does not exist, call
sgtl5000_replace_vddd_with_ldo?

I'd like to hear your comments if this approach is valid or if I missed
something in my assumptions.

In my DT, the VDDD-supply regulator is just a dummy / regulator-fixed
with regulator-always-on; set, because the 1.8V external VDDD supply on
my board is always powered on.
I could not test if it works with regulator-fixed with gpio nodes, which
actually switch the supply line on or off.

If everything is OK, I'd send a formal patch to the mailing list. See
below for the current state of my patch.

Tested on an i.MX6Q board with SGTL5000 rev 0x11 and external VDDD.

Thanks,
Clemens
