there was a long email from Richard that said:
	Upstream commit 631bc8f0134a ("ASoC: sgtl5000: Fix of unmute
	outputs on probe"), which is e9f621efaebd in v5.3 replaced
	snd_soc_component_write with snd_soc_component_update_bits and
	therefore no longer cleared the MUTE_ADC flag. This caused the
	ADC to stay muted and recording doesn't work any longer. This
	patch fixes this problem by adding a Switch control for
	MUTE_ADC.

That's why I took this.  If this isn't true, I'll be glad to drop this.

thanks,
