This adds a simple machine driver using the Wolfson wm9712 AC97 codec.

If the AC'97 code is going to be reworked to probe the CODEC rather than manually specify it in DT, then will this machine driver become generic for any AC'97 system, and hence you could rename the DT binding to nvidia,tegra-audio-ac97?

I wonder how you'll get that if you dynamically probe the AC'97 bus...

• tristate "SoC Audio support for Tegra boards using a WM9712 codec"
• depends on SND_SOC_TEGRA

I'd suggest making this depend on the Tegra AC97 module, or ARCH_TEGRA_2x_SOC instead, since it can only run on Tegra20. The AC'97 module has been removed on Tegra30 and replaced with an HD Audio controller instead.

• select SND_SOC_TEGRA20_AC97 if ARCH_TEGRA_2x_SOC

That select (or a dependency as mentioned above) is always required.

• select SND_SOC_AC97_BUS

Shouldn'y the AC'97 driver select that?

+static int tegra_wm9712_init(struct snd_soc_pcm_runtime *rtd)

• snd_soc_dapm_force_enable_pin(dapm, "Mic Bias");

Hmm. I guess that potentially ties this driver to whichever CODECs actually expose a widget with that exact name...

Do you need to implement this at all if it does nothing?
