Hi Umang,

Thank you for the patch.

I assume you meant

Drop the include directive. They can break the build, when one only
wants to build a subdirectory.

The reason for this, I assume, is that the driver is in staging. The
vchiq.h file should live in include/linux/raspberrypi/, not
drivers/staging/vc04_services/include/linux/raspberrypi/, so an
additional include directory is added in order to use

#include <linux/raspberrypi/vchiq.h>

When the code will get out of staging, vchiq.h will go to
include/linux/raspberrypi/, the extra include directory will be dropped,
and all will be well without having to change any source file.

With this patch, we'll have to undo the change below to
drivers/staging/vc04_services/bcm2835-audio/bcm2835.h when vc04_services
will get out of staging.

Greg, is that what you prefer ?
