[PATCH v1 0/2] Read _SUB from ACPI to be able to identify firmware

From: Stefan Binding
Date: Wed Jun 22 2022 - 09:08:20 EST


CS35L41 has a DSP which is able to run firmware, as well as a tuning file.
Different systems may want to use different firmwares and tuning files, and
some firmwares/tunings may not be compatible with other systems.
To allow a system to select the correct fimware/tuning, we can read an _SUB
from the ACPI. This _SUB can then be used to uniquely identify the system
in the firmware/tuning file name.

Add a helper function which reads the _SUB, so this can be used by other
parts in the future.
Add support inside the CS35L41 ASoC driver to read this _SUB, and save it
appropriately.
