What the other implementations I've seen have ended up doing is using a compressed audio stream to return the audio data to userspace, allowing the audion stream to be paused when no audio is detected. Your approach here is a bit more manual and may be more sensible for systems without the offload DSP however the decision to go outside ALSA and use a kobject needs to be thought about a bit, we'd want to ensure that there's a standard way of handling hardware like this so applications can work as consistently as possible with them.
There's no mention of any buffer so it's likely plain vanilla VAD here. We've seen two choices to warn userspace of a acoustic event, either use a uevent or a kcontrol. I believe we ended-up chosing the latter on the Intel side in the past and that was also the plan for SOF.
In terms of configurations for the PDM we have completely different settings since we pass explicit coefficients while this solution passes qualifiers (cut-off, quality, etc), not sure if there is any point in trying to unify those parameters.
