There appear to be 2 AC97 drivers for Alchemy in the latest Linux tree.
One is in sound/mips and the other is in sound/soc.  Are both going to
be maintained going forward?  If not, which one will be?  

Thanks,
Kevin

The one in sound/soc is for Au1200/Au1550; I think the sound/mips one only
works on Au1000/Au1500.

Seems so, as far as I see.

And whether they will be maintained is rather a question whether we'll
have users for these drivers.  As long as someone uses, there is no
reason to drop it.
