I believe this can be fixed simply by adjusting the relevant machine
driver(s) to match whatever the new name is.

Any change to tegra20_ac97.c would only affect
sound/soc/tegra/tegra_wm9712.c's struct tegra_wm9712_dai .cpu_dai_name
field. I suspect the correct fix might be to just remove the assignment
to .cpu_dai_name in tegra_wm9712.c; I think that because the
.cpu_of_node field is always set by that driver, the value of
.cpu_dai_name is never used? Anyway, if you fix tegra_wm9712.c in your
patch, I hope that Lucas Stach can test it.
