This is the register defaults table, it gets used to initialise the
register cache and optimise resync after suspend - all this does is
supply defaults for the cache.  That said...

I would suggest it's better to not supply defaults for ID registers and
read them back from the device otherwise things might get confused.

...if there's an issue with the SoundWire core modifying the registers
directly then the driver would need to mark all the core registers as
volatile so that they're not cached otherwise there will be collisions.
Or is it the case that we always need to go via the SoundWire core for
the generic registers, so they should just never be written at all?

It's also buggy to have regulators treated as optional unless they may
be physically absent.
