So, this was all a bit non-obvious but I found a datasheet so was able
to figure it out.  The device is using the I2S input channels to stream
monitoring data back to the host and can do this in TDM mode.  That's a
bit fun, and would ideally mean we'd have to play with hwmon, but it's
possibly better not to worry about that for now.

Looking at the datasheet I also see a VP supply which is omitted from
the driver and bindings - in battery powered devices like phones it'll
be connected directly to the battery so have no effect but it's still
better to represent it in case someone wants to use it some other way
that does merit software control (eg, a system running off 12V batteries
will need to regulate it down).

This looks like something that should be a runtime control.
