Just emphasizing what Mark Rutland said complete NACK, in particular the
drivers for functions have not been posted upstream at all (and it's
concerning that they're all being added under drivers/greybus rather
than within the relevant subsystem like we do normally).  I've not
looked at the code as it has not been submitted but given that and that
the reason I found this pull request was an ASoC contributor who had
seen it and looked at the code going "oh dear, greybus..." on IRC I'm
very concerned.

Sending a pull request for code that's never been seen upstream seems
completely premature.
