[alsa-devel] [PATCH v3] ASoC: Add support for NAU8825 codec to ASoC

[Chih-Chiang Chang]

Hi Anatol,

Thanks for your suggestion. We are working on different architectures to
support NAU8825 ALSA driver, and I also think it is better we can have a
cooperation for driver development and upstream. We have checked your
code, and we think your implement version should more follow the ALSA
upstream coding standards.

We have another version of ALSA driver, which also supports most
features as you listed. And I think you already got it from our HW
engineers. The major difference between our architectures should be the
flow and sequence in sleep mode, and some other architecture dependence
codes.

For the upstream, we think it is better to have only one version source
and could support different architectures. Do you agree to use your
version to go on the upstream in future? If yes, we can port your driver
to our test platform, and then give the feedback to you.
