We (well, I) were going to try but we got some oopses; from one thing or another,
but with Juergen's fixes and cell-index in place, now it plays audio.

Now it can be pushed to ALSA on that basis, but I'm still trying to get my
head around where we need to throw patches and if it goes into ALSA Drivers
first or the kernel or both? It's kind of convoluted compared to the ease
of just CC'ing netdev or linux-ide..

If you want to push it, please do, but also I guess it'll need to be bundled
with the cell-index patch for the fixups (we couldn't get it to make the
property for some odd reason) or a change to using addresses in the driver
for PSC selection (Juergen's original patch did this anyway)
