    [ALSA] AC97 bus interface for ad-hoc drivers · 0ca06a00

    AC97 Codec,PCI drivers
    I've made the review changes and as requested I've pasted the RFC by
    Nicolas below:-
    
    'I would like to know what people think of the following patch.  It
    allows for a codec on an AC97 bus to be shared with other drivers which
    are completely unrelated to audio.  It registers a new bus type, and
    whenever a codec instance is created then a device for it is also
    registered with the driver model using that bus type.  This allows, for
    example, to use the extra features of the UCB1400 like the touchscreen
    interface and the additional GPIOs and ADCs available on that chip for
    battery monitoring.  I have a working UCB1400 touchscreen driver here
    that simply registers with the driver model happily working alongside
    with audio features using this.'
    
    Changes over RFC:-
    
      o Now matches codec name within codec group.
      o Added ac97_dev_release() to stop kernel complaining about no release
    method for device.
      o Added 'config SND_AC97_BUS' to sound/pci/Kconfig and moved 'config
    SND_AC97_CODEC' out with the PCI=n statement.
      o module is now called snd-ac97-bus
