Oh, there's definitely going to be a platform-specific hook to configure
things.  The platform needs to specify how the devices that make up the
audio subsystem are interconnected on the board, and that's done in
kernel since it depends on the hardware and can potentially lead to
physical damage if done incorrectly.

Agreed.
