On these machines we are not producing any other clock for the codecs
besides the bit clock, so I am using MCLK interchangeably for it. (It is
what the sample rate is derived from after all.)
One of the codec drivers this is to be used with (cs42l42) expects to be
given the I2S bit clock with
snd_soc_dai_set_sysclk(dai, 0, mclk, SND_SOC_CLOCK_IN);
I can rename mclk to bclk in all of the code to make it clearer maybe.
Also the platform driver can take the bit clock value from set_bclk_ratio,
instead of set_sysclk from where it takes it now. The cs42l42 driver I can
patch too to accept set_bclk_ratio.

There’s already snd_soc_limit_volume, but it takes a fixed control name.
Can I extend it to understand patterns beginning with a wildcard, like
'* Amp Gain Volume’?
