As far as I can tell it should end up boiling down to the same thing but
I didn't follow through in detail, they should both bottom out in
twl_i2c_read_u8() if they hit hardware - all snd_soc_read() did was call
twl4030_read(), the patch just removes the indirection through assigning
the pointer.
Could you try deleting the attempt to read from the cache in
twl4030_read() and always go to hardware?
