Hi,

have just tested 2.6.35-rc1 with mainline ac97 driver and found this issue. During playback I see following output on the console:

...
atmel_ac97c atmel_ac97c.0: channel A event
atmel_ac97c atmel_ac97c.0: channel A event
atmel_ac97c atmel_ac97c.0: channel A event
...

If I see it right these, lines come from sound/atmel/ac97c.c->atmel_ac97c_interrupt():

dev_info(&chip->pdev->dev, "channel A event%s%s%s%s%s%s\n",
                                casr & AC97C_CSR_OVRUN   ? " OVRUN"   : "",
                                casr & AC97C_CSR_RXRDY   ? " RXRDY"   : "",
                                casr & AC97C_CSR_UNRUN   ? " UNRUN"   : "",
                                casr & AC97C_CSR_TXEMPTY ? " TXEMPTY" : "",
                                casr & AC97C_CSR_TXRDY   ? " TXRDY"   : "",
                                !casr                    ? " NONE"    : "");

 

It is necessary to output this message in normal mode or is it a debug message?
