Ok.

Ok, yeah, I was also thinking it should be moved to a general helper
when the next user shows up. The most likely case is another part in
this family may have a similar register layout.

Ultimately yes. I initially took the path of ignoring DAPM support in
interests of getting some clean done. Is it ok to merge DAPM support
later or do you prefer just having it in the intitial driver? For
routes, it'll include Main/Second source selects, the Rear Source
switch, and Mix enable at least.

I see. I'll fix that.

This is where things get hazy, unfortunately. The datasheet is partially
garbage. So there's no description or guidance on clock management at
all. It's not clear what clock this is or what specifically "fast" does.
Because there's no concept of an external clock, the sysclk is clearly
internally generated. Because of the register labeling of clock
generator, it's probably sysclk but I'm not 100% sure what the relevance
is of fast mode. The working settings were divined from trial and error
as well a couple microcontroller projects scattered across the
interwebs.

On second look at this, I think I should at least remove this switch
and hard code it for now or move to set_sysclk(). I'm hesistant of the
latter because of the lack of information on this setting.

This is actually setting the default/cache to the first mute value due
to the assumption in my implementation of the tda7419-specific get/set
for these registers. It simplified the code a bit to have these
initialized like this. e.g. for the attenuator group of registers,
x11xxxxx are all mute values, so 0xe0 is setting these regs to that
first mute value to simplify things. I'll take another look at
eliminating this. As it is, it does not change the fact that the actual
reset value of 0xff is also mute from a user POV.

Good point, I'll move this into probe. The part doesn't have a soft
reset provision so we need to do it manually like this.
