The bytcr-rt5640 driver has a few quirk setups depending on the board,
where the quirk value is set by DMI matching.  When you have a new
device to add the support, you often experience to try the different
quirk by trial-and-error.  Or, you may have a development model that
still has no proper DMI string.  In either case, you'd need to compile
the driver at each time.

This patch introduces a module option to override the quirk value on
the fly.  User can boot like snd-soc-sst-bytcr-rt5640.quirk=0x4004 to
override the default value without recompilation.  It's a raw value,
so user needs to check the source code for the meaning of each bit.

I am doing similar things at the moment, I folded IN1 and IN3 quirks 
together and was about to add a control to force 
single-ended/differential mics. The use of a parameter is not bad, we 
could stick it in a modprobe file and avoid writing more code.

That said, unless I am missing something, the problem with this 
parameter is that it will be overwritten by
DMI quirks or the settings detected by the driver, see e.g. this code.

         /* change defaults for Baytrail-CR capture */
         byt_rt5640_quirk |= BYT_RT5640_IN1_MAP;
         byt_rt5640_quirk |= BYT_RT5640_DIFF_MIC;
     } else {
         byt_rt5640_quirk |= (BYT_RT5640_DMIC1_MAP |
                 BYT_RT5640_DMIC_EN);
     }

     /* check quirks before creating card */
     dmi_check_system(byt_rt5640_quirk_table);
     log_quirks(&pdev->dev);

We may need a second variable to force the .quirk parameter to be used 
as is and avoid applying changes done at run-time.

Well, I somehow hesitated a complete override, but yeah, it'd be
sometimes more helpful.  OK, let me respin the patch quickly...


thanks,
