I don't know why this commit hasn't been pushed upstream, though.
As I understand it, without that patch the mpc8610_hpcd doesn't work, as the I2C address of the sound codec will be made busy by the platform code and thus the snd-soc-cs4270 driver won't be able to attach to it. If I am correct then I suggest that you ask Takashi to push the patch to Linus now to fix that.
Yeah, AFAICR it wasn't made clear when this was posted that it was a bug fix.
That's correct. I've never seen any interest in the CS4270 outside of Freescale.
That's not entirely suprising - the vast majority of embedded devices never go anywhere near mainline so it tends to only be reference boards and devices with some sort of public community that have activity that's visible upstream.
Very good point indeed. I'll make sure to check Takashi's sound-2.6 tree before attempting to convert any other SoC codec driver. Do you know off the top of your head if other drivers have already been converted?
None - the only other one is Takashi's current tree is WM8903.
