Actually, I've took downstream code that I'm not able to explain because 
the second reg isn't on my MTK documentation.
So I've remove the second reg and passed all functional tests 
successfully. Then I will remove the extra reg for v2.

Indeed, not needed. It was used by the downstream code driver but I 
remove it for v2.

I will rephrase:

True to enable the Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filter
on the digital microphone inputs.

Actually this is a hardware feature. Mode 1 t 5 are predefined filters. 
Mode 0, the HW will read some "coef filter registers" to setup the 
custom filter. the "coef filter regs" are written by the driver. 
Currently the coef values are hardcoded in the driver.

Actually this is a hardware feature. This is ALL I have to describe the 
HW behavior from the datasheet:
"
bit name: ul_dmic_two_wire_ctl
Turns on digital microphone for two wire mode.
0: Turn off
1: Turn on
"

On the board schematic, SoC and DMIC and linked by 3 pins:
- clk
- data0
- data1

IMHO, "two-wire-mode" means the HW use 2 pins for data, and the SoC must 
be aware of that by reading the register value written by the driver, 
using the value found in the DTS.

I don't get why you think it wouldn't be hardware behavior.

Rephrase description:
"True to enable the two wire mode of the digital microphone"
Is it better ?

About the property name, "mediatek,dmic-two-wire-ctl" sound better for you ?

Audio Front End, this is the same name used for other MTK SoC, to be 
consistent.

Cook a new patch serie to change "afe" by "audio-controller" for all MTK 
SoC would be great.
