ASoC: TWL4030: PM fix for output amplifiers
Gain controls on outputs affect the power consumption when the gain is set to non 0 value. Outputs with amps have one register to configure the routing and the gain: PREDL_CTL (0x25): bit 0: Voice enable bit 1: Audio L1 enable bit 2: Audio L2 enable bit 3: Audio R2 enable bit 4-5: Gain (0x0 - power down, 0x1 - 6dB, 0x2 - 0dB, 0x3 - -6dB) bit 0 - 3: is handled in DAPM domain (DAPM_MIXER) bit 4 - 5: has simple volume control If there is no audio activity (BIAS_STANDBY), and user changes the volume, than the output amplifier will be enabled. If the user changes the routing (but the codec remains in BIAS_STANDBY), than the cached gain value also be written to the register, which enables the amplifier. The existing workaround for this is to have virtual PGAs associated with the outputs, and whit DAPM PMD the gain on the output will be forced to 0 (off) by bypassing the regcache. This failed to disable the amplifiers in several scenario (as mentioned above). Also if the codec is in BIAS_ON state, and user modifies a volume control, which path is actually not enabled, than that amplifier will be enabled as well, but it will be not turned off, since there is no DAPM path, which would make mute it. To prevent amps being enabled, when they are not needed, introduce the following workaround: Track the state of each of this type of output. In twl4030_write only allow actual write, when the given output is enabled, otherwise only update the reg_cache. The PGA event handlers on power up will write the cached value to the chip (restoring gain, routing selection). On power down 0 is written to the register (disabling the amp, and also just in case clearing the routing).
