It's really down to your objection to the use of 'struct driver'... For ASoC support we only need the .name and .pm_ops, so there's really no possible path forward otherwise.
It means that we cannot have a solution which is Intel specific into core. If you has a standalone controller you do not need this.
A 'struct driver' is not Intel-specific, sorry.
We are discussing 'struct sdw_master_driver'. Please be very specific in you replies and do not use incorrect terminology which confuses people.
Sorry a 'struct sdw_master_driver' IMHO is. As I have said it is not needed if you have standalone controller even in Intel case, and rest of the world.
You're splitting hair without providing a solution.
Please see the series [PATCH 0/5] soundwire: add sdw_master_device support on Qualcomm platforms
This solution was tested on Qualcomm platforms, that doesn't require this sdw_master_driver to be used, so your objections are now invalid.
I have given you a solution which you dont like. I have asked you to talk to your colleagues at Intel, I have not heard back. I cant do anymore than this.
testing on QC boards doesnt make sense, the contention is 'sdw_master_driver' which doesnt get used. I have said earlier, will say again, if you drop this piece I am ready to apply the rest of the patches.
