The code in the last patch will pick up the name and use it to
name the amps that are registered. This means when those amps are
referred to by the audio machine driver code we will know what
they are called. Admittedly that audio machine driver change
isn't in this series as it is a bit of a work in progress and not
technically necessary for just registering the amps as this
series does.

Yeah that might need to change in the future, however there is no
obvious use-cases for using multiple cs42l43's in a single system
so at the moment we are not doing the work to support that case.
There are plenty other things that would need fixed to support
that as well.

Sorry, still not quite following this one, are you just reminding
me to include the header when I move the swnode_gpio_undefined
definition or are you asking for something more?

I am willing to be guided here, but given it would result in a
null pointer dereference I am inclined to keep the check
personally.

I will check this.
