AUDIN provides audio input support to Amlogic GXBB/GXL SoCs.

What's missing after this to get capture support working is to connect a
capture capable codec to the SoC. For example to test these changes an
NXP SGTL5000 chip has been connected to an OdroidC2 (GXBB) board using a
custom hat board.

The following additions/overlay are required on top of
'amlogic/meson-gxbb-odroidc2.dts' to make that hat board to work:

    &sound {
            audio-routing = "AUDIN I2S Formatter", "AIU I2S Encoder Capture";

            dai-link-1 {
                    codec-1 {
                            sound-dai = <&sgtl5000>;
                    };
            };

            dai-link-3 {
                    sound-dai = <&audin 0>;
            };
    };

    &audin {
            status = "okay";
    };

Then, from userspace:

    $ amixer sset 'AUDIN FIFO0 SRC SEL' 'I2S'
    $ arecord -l  # find the "FIFO Capture" device
    $ arecord -D hw:0,<N> -f S16_LE -r 48000 -c 2 /tmp/in.wav
