[PATCH 0/9] AC97 device/driver model revamp

[Robert Jarzmik]

It all started in the pxa device-tree submission here :
   https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/25/965

Last submission was a RFC in here:
  http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/2446863
   
It will be maintained in :
   git fetch https://github.com/rjarzmik/linux.git work/ac97

The driving ideas are still the same, and I put them in [1] for memory. This is
the first post RFC submission. In order to make a full demonstration of the
framework, wm97xx was converted to an MFD, see [2] for the "why".

As this serie is a complete wm9713 change towards the new AC97 bus, here is the
patch organization :
 - 1/9, 2/9, 3/9 and 5/9: the new AC97 bus, for Mark and Takashi to review
 - 4/9: wm9713 conversion, this one has ugly #ifdefs, should be reviewed more
   carefully
 - 6/9: prerequisite for final 9/9, for Marek and Sebastian to approve
        => this one is independent and can flow through Sebastian's tree in this
        next-cycle if accepted
 - 7/9: prerequisite for final 9/9, for Mark/Dmitry
        => this one is also independent and can flow in this cycle if accepted
 - 8/9: prerequisite for final 9/9, for Lee to review
        => this one has a dependency on 2/9, so it probably can't fit in this
	next-cycle
 - 9/9: this last one depends on all the patches before, so it can't fit in this
        next-cycle

As a sum-up, I'd like to push for review for this -next cycle at least the
patches 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 9.

Happy review.

[1] RFC PATCH reminder:

Amongst the driving ideas behind this RFC :
 - use device/driver model for AC'97
   device/driver binding is based on vendor_id{1,2}
 - use auto-probe of the AC'97 bus to enumerate codecs and create devices
 - be compatible with previous platform_data model for codecs
   => this enables a smooth transition, where a codec (here wm9713) can
      be used either through platform_device or automatic discovery
 - struct snd_ac97 is not used
   This structure is really heavy, and doesn't represent an AC97 device, but
   rather an AC'97 codec internals IIUC.
   I think it's right place would be in include/sound/ac97/codec.h.
   This is also a problem for regmap adherence, hence the
   include/sound/ac97/compat.h.
 - a new AC'97 bus Kconfig is created
   This was done for a smooth transition ... let's see if it's a good idea.
 - split the AC'97 into :
   - the codec
   - the digital controller
   - the bus

Amongst the things that are not all touched yet :
 - ac97_codec.c
   The generic AC'97 codec in sound/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c has really a lot
   features, which are not at all PCI related. They could be transfered to
   sound/ac97, without the pci specific field.
   => this deserves a deep ahead thinking, which I'll do if the current approach
   is accepted by the communauty.

The most important patch is 2/7 "ALSA: ac97: add an ac97 bus". This is the main
evaluation point for the serie, the others are here so that I can test it all.

Well, this is a long term effort, which might need a complete rewrite according
to the comments it'll get. Let's expose it for comments and see how I can
progress with it.

[2] As a corollary, wm97xx is changed into a MFD device, which at least spawns:
 - the touchscreen device
 - the ac97 codec
 - the problem to solve was stated in
