At the moment we do not have users using the audio on top of the upstream kernel. All distributions are using patched kernel with ABE support. In there the audio card is know as SDP4430, and we have the UCM profile for the ABE version of the OMAP4 boards there which will not work on the upstream kernel since we do not have yet the ABE in mainline kernel. My plan is to add the UCM files for the upstream version of the driver which will be updated as soon we got new features (like the ABE support). It is easier for distros also to move, when time comes to the new kernel.
This seems like we need a better system for doing this, we can't go changing the machine name every time there's a kernel space change that affects a UCM file, that's going to get crazy. Not quite sure what the best approach is here - version specific directories perhaps, or some method of keying off the presence of certain controls.
