Subject: [RFC][PATCH] ASoC: Avoid writing to WM8971_RESET in wm8971_resume

Writing to WM8971_RESET resets all registers to the default state.
Thus we should avoid writing to WM8971_RESET on resume.

Hi,
While reading the code, I don't understand why we need to do (in wm8971_resume):

for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(wm8971_reg); i++) {
        if (i + 1 == WM8971_RESET)
                continue;

My understanding is that we want to avoid writing to WM8971_RESET on resume.
Thus I send this patch for review.
I don't have the hardware for testing, I'd appreciate if someone can test this patch.

Thanks,
Axel
