Hi Pierre
Sorry for missing your valuable review comments, thanks for Broonie's remind.

Correct.

There's two bin files for tas2781, one is register settings(RCA bin file), the other is the dsp firmware and filter coeff.
If no RCA bin file is load, the tas2781 can't work, it will be TASDEVICE_DSP_FW_FAIL.
If only RCA bin file load, the tas2781 will work in bypass mode, which dsp do not work, neither spk protection nor acoustic 
algorithm is enabled 
(TASDEVICE_RCA_FW_OK).
If both RCA bin and dsp firmware are loaded, that is TASDEVICE_DSP_FW_ALL_OK, tas2781 work in dsp mode, both spk protection
and acoustic algorithm are enabled
