OK, I see.
This driver was used for Renesas SCU (Sampling Rate Converter Unit) which
is including SRC (Sampling Rate Converter), CTU (Channel Transfer Unit), MIX (Mixer),
1 or more CPU and 1 Codec system.
(Original was only for SRC, rsrc = Renesas SRC)

Can I use simple-scu-audio-card ? If OK, I can send such patch.
