Yeah, I generated the patches in a bit of a hurry :-)

The alsa soc object files are all done this way so that they get
prefixed with snd-soc-

Will do, thanks.

I would much rather leave them here since they are only required by this
file. The ep93xx-i2s.h header should only include the public interface
to the i2s driver.

I think info is fine, it should be relatively clear what it is used for.

Fixed.

Oops, this is a cut and paste bug. The else case should write to the
EP93XX_I2S_RXWRDLEN register instead. However, the EP93xx users' guide
says that if the tx and rx channels are both in master mode then
txclkcfg is used for both and the word length for both must be the same.
 Possibly we should just write the word length for both here.

The problem is that it races with code inside
arch/arm/mach-ep93xx/clock.c so it would need to be an exported mutex,
which is just as ugly. I think I will end up going with Hartley's/Mark's
idea to use the clock api for this.

Okay, moved it down a few lines so it is just aboce ep93xx_i2s_dai.

Okay, will fix.

Other drivers are using runtime_data, I think it is more descriptive
than priv.

Changed it to me, and left Lennert's original copyright in the comment
at the top of the file.
