Thank you very much for your input on this. So we can assume that no
user of the sgtl5000 is controlling an external VDDD regulator, because
this does not work without your patch series from Februar 2015.

As far as not enabling the internal LDO when using external VDDD and
avoiding the misleading "Using internal LDO..." message at boot, do you
think my patch would be OK?

Regards,
Clemens
