Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] ASoC: starfive: Add PDM controller support

Add the driver of PDM controller for the StarFive JH8100 SoC.

The Pulse Density Modulation (PDM) controller is a digital PDM
microphone interface controller and decoder that supports up to
4 channels. The PDM have two blocks and each block controls
stereo audio data which is transferred to a Inter-IC Sound (I2S)
recorder on the JH8100 SoC.

Hi Mark,

Could you please help to review and give your comment about this PDM driver?

Please don't send content free pings and please allow a reasonable time
for review. People get busy, go on holiday, attend conferences and so
on so unless there is some reason for urgency (like critical bug fixes)
please allow at least a couple of weeks for review. If there have been
review comments then people may be waiting for those to be addressed.

Sending content free pings adds to the mail volume (if they are seen at
all) which is often the problem and since they can't be reviewed
directly if something has gone wrong you'll have to resend the patches
anyway, so sending again is generally a better approach though there are
some other maintainers who like them - if in doubt look at how patches
for the subsystem are normally handled.
