What do we mean by a "control interface" here, is that referring to the kcontrol that is created to select the rate in the case of multiple rates? Or is it simply refering to the fact we call snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked? But really that function is adding widgets, as I noted in my last email. Also what do we mean by a "A mixer must be created", I am not aware of any requirement for a mixer? The DAI link needs to be on a valid DAPM path, but I don't see any requirements other than that.
