Hi,

actually the wm8903 codec needs GPIO1 and GPIO2 to be configured
properly to be able to use DMIC actually. I would propose to
automatically configure these to DMIC-mode whenever ADCINPUT is set to
DMIC. Would you agree with this procedure?
I would prepare a patch which changes all relevant registers then.
