As I've said a number of times before AC97 does not support platform data and the ALSA guys blocked adding it.
We're not blocking adding more data to AC97 structures. We just blocked adding new variable when it's not used.
There was a very strong pushback against the idea of adding a void * to the structure, which is what I'd be looking for.
In other words - send a driver code using this variable with the variable addition to the ALSA AC97 structure.
IIRC the original posting had something along with it? As far as examples go things like drivers/power/wm97xx_battery.c are already in tree and pretty much ready to use platform data if it became available.
