Actually q6afe-dai does not seem to make use of the register number.
The DAPM widgets all look like

  SND_SOC_DAPM_AIF_IN("HDMI_RX",  NULL,   0,    0,     0,      0),
                  /* (wname,    stname, wchan, wreg, wshift, winvert)

Wouldn't it be better to replace wreg = 0 with SND_SOC_NOPM in this case
so the read/write won't happen at all?

q6routing on the other hand does make use of wreg, so this would not
work there...

Also: If I remember correctly the ASoC core will also attempt to write
to these "registers" when starting to play some audio, so you might also
need to implement component->write().
