Actually now I look again the only control interface this driver has is
GPIOs but it does expose a digital interface with constraints as input
so doesn't fit within simple-amplifier. However this is just powering
off the amplifier to achieve mute rather than a separate mute control so
it'd probably be better to use a SND_SOC_DAPM_PIN_SWITCH() for the
Speaker widget to do this, this would also end up addressing Jaroslav's
thing with the naming as a side effect. Sorry about the confusion there.
