Like all my patches, finally somebody has caught this ;-)

Seriously, these patches are just easier part. More renaming
then real changes. Only the last one (use struct snd_wss instead of snd_ad1848)
unify some code.

The next step is to merge the ad1848_lib into the wss_lib. I want to do
this in 3 to 5 steps for easier testing (and review). The problem is 
that temporary steps would require exporting of internal wss_lib functions.
My idea is to do this include in the ad1848_lib.c:
#include "../wss/wss_lib.c" 
then replace ad1848 functions with the wss_lib functions.

As Rene wrote, doing it in steps helps us testing changes on cards we have
for regressions.

BTW. I am on holidays next two weeks so do not expect too much.

Regards,
Krzysztof
