little to do with picking up a phone.

Possibly, TBH I had thought I'd seen something for off-hook when I
looked at this originally but I can't seem to spot it now.

So, if I want to follow the ASoC jack model, my in-kernel hook switch 
handler should only power on/off the handset, not touching the 
speakerphone at all. The latter should be controlled from userspace. 
Please correct me if I am missing something.

That's my initial guess - I've not looked at your particular hardware
so it may not end up being the best way of dealing with your system but
from what you said it was the approach that sprang to mind.
