My plan for this when I originally wrote the comment had been to make
the contents of the soc-audio device probe and removal look exactly like
what you'd write directly in a machine driver so no code except for the
code doing the soc-audio device had any idea it was there.  This would
keep backwards compatiblity without special casing, making things more
maintainable.
