Hi Mark
These are codec duplicate functions cleanup patches - v1 We would like to switch to "component" style base ASoC in the future instead of current "CPU/Codec/Platform/Card" style.
Current "component" already has callback functions, and "codec" is based on "component", but "codec" is still requesting/using its original callback. This is bacause of historical reason, but this is the time to cleanup.
Lars's opinion is that this kind of cleanup can be final stage, but I think these are needed for "component" base style switching
These are very big patch-set, but it doesn't add new features. [001/159] - [158/159] move callback functions from codec to component, and last [159/159] will remove codec side callback.
We need this kind of cleanup for .probe/.remove too, and on Platform too. This cares codec duplicate callback function only as 1st step. I will post codec .probe/.remove cleanup if these are accepted, and will post platform side cleanup too.
I build-tested these patches with make allyesconfig on x86, and tested on Lager board.
