ASoC: dapm: Implement mixer control sharing
This is the equivalent of commit af46800b "ASoC: Implement mux control sharing", but applied to mixers instead of muxes. This allows a single control to affect multiple mixer widgets at once, which is useful when there is a single set of register bits that affects multiple mixers in HW, for example both the L and R mixers of a stereo path. Without this, you either: 1) End up with multiple controls that affect the same register bits, but whose DAPM state falls out of sync with HW, since the DAPM state is only updated for the specific control that is modified, and not for other paths that are affected by the register bit(s). 2) False paths through DAPM, since you end up merging unconnected stereo paths together into a single widget which hosts the single control, and then branching back out again, thus conjoining the enable states of the two input paths. Now that the kcontrol creation logic is split out into a separate function, dapm_create_or_share_mixmux_kcontrol(), also use that to replace most of the body of dapm_new_mux(). This should produce no functional change, but simply eliminates some mostly duplicated code.
