[PATCH] ASoC: nau8325: Add software reset during probe

[Neo Chang]

Currently, the driver only performs a hardware reset during the I2C probe
sequence. To ensure all internal states of the codec are properly cleared
without affecting the configuration registers, a software reset is also
required.

According to the hardware specification, writing to the Software Reset
register (R01) twice will reset all internal states safely.

This patch adds the nau8325_software_reset() function, executes it right
after the hardware reset in the probe function, and marks the R01 register
as writeable in the regmap configuration.

The first two paragraphs explain the situation, I'd say the third is 
redundant. Not a reason for a resend though, only something to consider.

Thank you for the review and the advice on the commit message.

I will keep it in mind for the next time.

Applied to

Thanks!

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
