semi-scratch that.  ive punted the dead devices from our tree, but the
bfin-lq035q1-spi is correct as that device driver requires two things
-- a platform driver named "bfin-lq035q1" and a spi driver named
"bfin-lq035q1-spi".

i'll have to send a patch out for the ad7147-spi since it's been
merged into the input tree iirc, but Barry can handle these two
codecs.
