I'd like to get everything, or at least most of this, into 2.6.39 if at all possible.
I guess getting just the basic driver (i.e. before this addition of internal speaker
support) would be OK though, since none of the patches for the basic driver
have any cross-subsystem dependencies.

For the basic driver: Everything is already in the ASoC tree. I'll be pushing
patches to support it (i.e. add the required platform_data, and possibly various
Tegra infra-structure such as clock configuration additions and fixes etc.) to the
Tegra for-next tree once it's open to accept patches:

The problem is that the Tegra for-next branch isn't yet open for submissions,
(I was originally directed to provide patches against linux-tegra-2.6.36 and
just recently directed to provided patches against linux-tegra-2.6.37)
so I've been queueing up all the arch/arm-mach-tegra patches for submission
once Tegra for-next opens. Colin and Erik have said offline that this will be soon.

Hence, the arch/arm-mach-tegra changes in this patchset (excluding the simple
standalone addition of that one new header) build on code that is neither in ASoC's nor
Tegra's for-next branch. Hence, you won't be able to carry that patch yourself
since it won't apply, even with manual merging I suspect.

Sorry the situation is so confusing. I hope this explains some of the background.
