Actually I should have copied you on the last iteration after
addressing your review comments, sorry about this omission.

Sounds good, I assume you mean enabling/disabling from the set_pll
and set_syclk handlers. Do you find any issues with that? I think
the CODEC should ensure external MCLK is enabled when setting FLL,
otherwise it will not lock?
Presumably arizona_set_fll() and arizona_set_sysclk() are places
where it should be checked what the root source clock is and enable
it if it's not yet enabled?
