[RESEND PATCH v1 0/6] Enable Greybus Audio codec driver

[Vaibhav Agarwal]

[REQUEST]

This patch series intends to "Enable Greybus Audio codec driver"
existing in the staging tree. I have shared the original patch series with
Greybus-Dev mailing list and as per the suggestion from Alexandre, I'm
also interested to push Greybus Audio to sound soc tree. Thus, now I'm
resending it to ASoc maintainers for review.

Following is the top level SW design for GB Codec driver and GB Audio
modules.

    | SND SOC    | Audio    +-------------->+GBA Module 2  |
    | Framework  | Codec    |               +--------------+
    |            | Driver   |
    |            |          |
    +-----------------------+               +--------------+
                            +-------------->+GBA Module N  |
                                            +--------------+

Patch 5 contains the changes to provide helper APIs to link DAPM DAI widgets
for the module added and remove/free component controls for the module removed
dynamically. Eventually, I propose to extend snd_soc_xxx APIs for this
purpose.

Kindly share your inputs.

[COVER LETTER]

The existing GB Audio codec driver is dependent on MSM8994 Audio driver.
During the development stage, this depdency was configured due to
various changes involved in MSM Audio driver to enable addtional codec
card and some of the changes proposed in mainline ASoC framework.
However, these are not the real dependencies and some of them can be
easily removed.

The folowing patch series includes the changes to resolve unnecessary
depedencies and make the codec driver functional with the latest kernel.

Patch 1,2: Incudes jack framework related changes.
Patch 3,4,5: Resolves compilation error observed with the latest kernel and
also provides helper APIs required to allow dynamic addition/removal of
modules.
Patch 6: Finally provides config options and related Makefile changes to
enable GB Codec driver.

Thanks to Alexandre for raising the headsup [1] and motivating me to provide
the necessary changes.
