I've no current plan to work on multiple AC97 controllers support within
ASoC except in so far as it falls out of other work - I've never
encountered an embedded system with multiple AC97 controllers so it's a
somewhat academic issue.  Patches welcome, though I'd expect it'd be
sensible to wait until multi-card support is present.
