You might want to consider losing that stuff when sending patches - it just
makes things harder.

The patch is terribly wordwrapped.

I suspect a lot of the code which you're fixing is about to be removed.

split this patch into at least one for sound/oss and one for sound/soc and
sound/pci, thanks.
