Ah, so the SRAM is directly memory mappable. Nice. But we have a
limited amount of it so need to allocate it to a device somehow based on
some factor I guess?

This all looks a bit magic, some defines would not go amiss here.

More magic numbers! This also suggests that there is a volume control
lurking in here which could usefully be exposed to applications?

This is looking like exposing the routing and using DAPM might save a
bunch of code? Overall my main thought looking at the code here and
what the hardware was described as doing is that it'd all be simpler if
it were a DPCM based thing using DAPM for power. I think I'd like to
see a strong reason for not using at least DPCM.

This should be a switch statement.
