Thanks for the quick reviews Takashi!

Ah, this is a mistake in the FIXME comment.
initially we had a field called "sof" and Mark made the following comment:

Can we rename this somehow to be less specific to SoF or move it to be
somewhere other than the runtime structure?  I can see why you've done
this but I can also see every DSP vendor turning up and trying to add
their own field in here.
"

so we added a FIXME to track this, then later we moved the field and 
renamed it 'private' so that it can be used by others if needed but 
didn't remove the FIXME. Will fix this.

yes indeed, will check if we can make this more generic, and add notes 
in any case.
