This breaks existing boards which rely on GPIO 4 being set as the lock
output.  This is very unfortunate since it's a silly thing for the
driver to default to but nontheless we should really continue to support
them - at a guess Peter's board is relying on this, and even if it isn't
someone else's might.
I take your point, but the reason I pushed this patch was that I wanted to use GPIO4 for pll-out and unfortunately because the pll-lock configuration is after the pll-out configuration it stomps on it. If I modify the patch to provide a default for pll-lock I will then be obliged to specify pll-lock on another GPIO. The pcm5122 has limited IO so being forced to have a GPIO for pll-lock seems wrong to me. A future user of the device may well decide to use the GPIOs for other purposes and therefore not want a pll-lock signal at all. Surely we should allow for that possibility?

Given that Peter has indicated that he'd be happy with this solution and that this code hasn't reached a published kernel would it be reasonable to go ahead with my current patch (happy to clean up the indent issues that Peter pointed out of course)?
