i2c directory is for the common i2c modules.  this isn't the place to
put the card driver.  if it's a PCI card, put it under pci directory.
or, if it's a generic driver, you can put it into drivers directory.

argh, it's a typo.  obj-$(CONFIG_XXXX) is correct.

ALSA configure script checks Kconfig and generates the proper
configuration for older kernels, too.  you don't need extra setting.
