But, don't get me wrong: I'm not against the action itself, the removal of input jack support in HD-audio. I myself did propose this once ago. Again, what's missing in your approach is the proper process.
- Think whether removal of input-jack support is really needed for HD-audio; for example, if you integrate snd_jack stuff to support both input-jack and kctl jack, HD-audio driver can use it solely instead of calling snd_kctl stuff. Then both input and kctl jacks will be supported automagically.
I think this is the best approach - just get everything using jack.c for all types of jack and deal with things there. We've also got extcon based reporting to consider, having a single place where all the userspace interfaces are implemented will mean we can just add that.
This is why I put everything in jack.c in the first place :(
