[ Upstream commit f63550e2b165208a2f382afcaf5551df9569e1d4 ]

Apply a workaround for what appears to be a hardware quirk.

The problem seems to happen when enabling "whole chip power" (bit D7
register R6) for the very first time after the chip receives power. If
either "output" (D4) or "DAC" (D3) aren't powered on at that time,
playback becomes very distorted later on.

This happens on the Google Chameleon v3, as well as on a ZYBO Z7-10:
https://ez.analog.com/audio/f/q-a/543726/solved-ssm2603-right-output-offset-issue/480229
I suspect this happens only when using an external MCLK signal (which
is the case for both of these boards).

Here are some experiments run on a Google Chameleon v3. These were run
in userspace using a wrapper around the i2cset utility:
ssmset() {
i2cset -y 0 0x1a $(($1*2)) $2
}

For each of the following sequences, we apply power to the ssm2603
chip, set the configuration registers R0-R5 and R7-R8, run the selected
sequence, and check for distortions on playback.

ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # chip, out, dac
OK

ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x87 # out, dac
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # chip
OK

(disable MCLK)
ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x1f # chip
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # out, dac
(enable MCLK)
OK

ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x1f # chip
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # out, dac
NOT OK

ssmset 0x06 0x1f # chip
ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # out, dac
NOT OK

ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x0f # chip, out
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # dac
NOT OK

ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x17 # chip, dac
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # out
NOT OK

For each of the following sequences, we apply power to the ssm2603
chip, run the selected sequence, issue a reset with R15, configure
R0-R5 and R7-R8, run one of the NOT OK sequences from above, and check
for distortions.

ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # chip, out, dac
OK

(disable MCLK)
ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x07 # chip, out, dac
(enable MCLK after reset)
NOT OK

ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x17 # chip, dac
NOT OK

ssmset 0x09 0x01 # core
ssmset 0x06 0x0f # chip, out
NOT OK

ssmset 0x06 0x07 # chip, out, dac
NOT OK
