As with the other patches in the series this looks good but it has been
affected by changes in the ASoC APIs and needs to be updated to reflect
current ALSA. The topic/asoc branch of Takashi's tree:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-2.6.git

is what's currently queued for 2.6.28.

Other than that, checkpatch-style things and a few more minor issues the
main things are the register write interface in /proc and the hardware
parameters for the I2S driver. I've not flagged all the checkpatch
stuff here.

Can I also suggest splitting this up into a series of patches for easier
review - for example, adding the SPORT support first, followed by the
AC97 and I2S drivers and then the machine drivers? I'd certainly have
appreciated having seen the SPORT support (which appears at the end of
the patch) before looking at the AC97 and I2S stuff.

Your spelling of AC97 isn't consistent here. The kernel seems to prefer
AC97, as do you.

Hopefully the driver is more generic than that?

Checkpatch picks up on this and quite a few other places being over 80
columns.

This looks wrong - there's rather more options for cmd, for example, and
you're making assumptions about the value of SNDRV_PMC_STREAM_PLAYBACK.

Indentation?

t's not necessary to do anything else on error, these functions only set
registers.

TX and RX Clocks are also not independent,currently,in order to
implement full duplex,we have to enable both RX and TX side even if
there is only a steam is opened,
And make the other side running on a dummy buffer,so all registers
cann't be configured any more. when the second stream is opened we just
switch the DMA form dummy buffer to the normal data buffer.

if nothing else.

Yes ,the codec runs in master mode and provides bit clock..Do you mean
just implement a dummy set_fmt() with comments for CPU DAI,
Refer to my description above,it's not possible to configure anything
for CPU DAI after a stream is opened ,that why we have to configure CPU
DAI before any stream is opened.
