What is considered a new feature here?
Is it a new feature, if I fix the McBSP for OMAP4 (FIFO usage, and small 
updates)?
We have discussion ongoing about the mcbsp code move, and so far the current 
understanding/plan is (Jarkko/Liam correct me if I'm wrong):
- Fix the OMAP4 support
- move the code under sound/soc/omap/
 - the reason for this is that McBSP block can be only used for streaming type 
of modes (from omap2430 onwards McBSP does not have clock stop functionality).
This makes other type of usage hard to say the least.
- Clean up the code (remove the SPI mode, remove unused code paths at the same 
time)
- Consolidate the interface for audio only use
- Only OMAP3 has sidetone (on OMAP2 EAC block has the sidetone), might need 
some change, but I think the current way can be reused.

In this way we are not going to hide the OMAP4 fixes with the code 
move/consolidation effort, so one can track what has been done, and why.

Opinions?
