Hi Mark,
Thanks for your suggestion. I agree it's better to allocate the memory at probe time. I think we can still keep the implementation in the suspend/resume function as a fallback solution if user doesn't allocate the memory in probe function.
In the new mediatek SOCs, regcache has been used to handle register backup. Do I need to add the buffer allocation on probe function to the platform in which mtk_afe_suspend and mtk_afe_resume are used?
Thanks, Trevor
