[alsa-devel] PROBLEM: Asoc driver in 2.6.37.3 for AT91SAM9260 / TLV320AIC3X is broken

Hi,
I fixed the problem:
in file "linux-2.6.38/sound/soc/atmel/snd-soc-afeb9260.c"
in function "afeb9260_soc_init"
is missing "platform_device_alloc("soc-audio", -1);".

I also add SPI functionality and external clock on BCLK to codec tlv320aic3x.
I'm sending diff, is this the right way to add it as patch to kernel releases?

I also discover the problem with SD card: not all cards can run at 375kHz at init state, I change minimal freq to
200kHz. It's in diff too.
