Not quite. "select MULTIPLEXER" is correct and is not questionable.
I'm asking about the MUX_GPIO. The codec itself has nothing to do with
the board using _GPIO_ to switch 4-pin modes. It is a board-level
decision. A board can use an I2C-controlled MUX instead. I'd say, that
at least you should describe rationale for this `imply` clause in the
commit message.
