Btw, AC97, PCM and DMA were easy kill.

It's I2S that's PITA.
I am thinking of leaving 24xx-i2s, i.e pre-64xx(shared with 2412),
unchanged and letting
them die of old age (obsoleted and dropped duly if no stakeholder keeps up).

I plan to categorize the newer I2S blocks into i2s_v2(s3c2412),
i2s_v3(v2 with minor variation in
reg field order), i2s_v4 (v3 plus 5.1 channel support) and v5 (v4 plus
Secondary Stereo-Channel
for h/w mixing support).  A new flag 'version' in 'struct
s3c_audio_pdata' passed via
platform_data can be used to differentiate quirks and features
run-time in a single CPU driver.

Ben, Mark and other interested parties:-
Any opinions, before I have spent too many hours working on it?

Thanks.
