Subject[PATCH v2 08/12] ASoC: doc: dapm: describe how widgets and routes are registered
The small paragraph describing how to register widgets is incomplete (does
not mention routes) and mentions snd_soc_dapm_new_control() which is not
really used. Moreover it appears as a part of the "Virtual Widgets"
subsection.

Replace it with a detailed and current description of how widgets and
routes are registered, mentioning both static declaration and runtime
registration. Also make this a section on its own.

+Registering DAPM controls
+=========================
+
+In many cases the DAPM widgets implemented statically in a ``static const
+struct snd_soc_dapm_widget`` array and the routes connecting them in a
+``static const struct snd_soc_dapm_route`` array in a codec driver, and
+simply declared via the ``dapm_widgets`` and ``num_dapm_widgets`` fields of
+the ``struct snd_soc_component_driver`` so the driver registration will
+take care of populating them::
+
+ static const struct snd_soc_dapm_widget wm2000_dapm_widgets[] = {
+ SND_SOC_DAPM_OUTPUT("SPKN"),
+ SND_SOC_DAPM_OUTPUT("SPKP"),
+ ...
+ };
+
+ /* Target, Path, Source */
+ static const struct snd_soc_dapm_route wm2000_audio_map[] = {
+ { "SPKN", NULL, "ANC Engine" },
+ { "SPKP", NULL, "ANC Engine" },
+ ...
+ };
+
+ static const struct snd_soc_component_driver soc_component_dev_wm2000 = {
+ ...
+ .dapm_widgets = wm2000_dapm_widgets,
+ .num_dapm_widgets = ARRAY_SIZE(wm2000_dapm_widgets),
+ ...
+ };
+
+In more complex cases the list of DAPM widgets and/or routes can be only
+known at build time. This happens for example when a driver supports
+different models having a different set of features. In those cases
+separate widgets and routes arrays implementing the case-specific features
+can be registered programmatically by calling snd_soc_dapm_new_controls()
+and snd_soc_dapm_add_routes().
