Ok. But I'd still like to get it working.

Now... I got up-to v4.2 kernel, and it seems that it has support for
multiple sources with same name (but on different chips):

[ 1.125485] Adding alias for supply MICVDD,(null) -> MICVDD,spi32766.1
[ 1.285470] Adding alias for supply MICVDD,(null) -> MICVDD,spi32766.2

...but it does not look like I can use those aliases from the ALSA side:

[ 2.734198] wm5102-codec.1 supply MICVDD,spi32766.1 not found, using dummy regulator
[ 3.170912] wm5102-codec.2 supply MICVDD,spi32766.2 not found, using dummy regulator

I tried to do this:

SND_SOC_DAPM_REGULATOR_SUPPLY("MICVDD,spi32766.1", 0, SND_SOC_DAPM_REGULATOR_BYPASS),

Any idea what I did wrong, or what needs to be fixed?

It is exposed to the ALSA. If ALSA exposes it to userspace, I'm not sure.

I'm afraid I don't know how to do this. See above.
