Dear Mark, pHilipp, Magnus

Thank you for a lot of advice/comments

I checked datasheet.
My codec is AK4643, and it is compatible with AK4642.
And AK4642 is not compatible AK4641 (^^;

I will re-name it AK464x -> AK4642.
Can you agree with me ?

do you mean it should be possible to change size ?
If so, is it good as future tasks ?
This time, 32k is good for me.

hmm... I can agree with you.
But this time, is it good as future tasks ?
I will fix this problem if I can get free time

if fsi-ak464x.c is in arch/sh/boards/mach-se/7724/
it works, and it say
------------
AK4642 Audio Codec 0.0.1
asoc: AK4642 <-> FSI0 mapping ok
ALSA device list:
  #0: FSI (AK4642)
------------

but when I tried to move it to sound/soc/sh,
then it be doesn't work. it say
------------
ALSA device list:
  No soundcards found.
------------

there is no "AK4642 Audio Codec 0.0.1" print,
so, snd_soc_codec_device :: probe isn't called.
can you give me advice ?

Best regards
