This issue usually indicates that the clocking has an issue - are you
following a similar pattern to that seen in the lowland machine driver
in mainline? This is the best practice for WM8994 class parts, it
should minimise power consumption when idle.

The DC servo is used to reduce pops on the headphone output. If the DC
servo is not run the headphone outputs will produce audible artifacts
when headphone is enabled which are generally considered unacceptable by
users. There's a more detailed explanation of the feature in the WM8994
datasheet but that's the high level.
