I think you've misunderstood me, I'm not talking about squashing, but 
splitting patch 7 into two separate patches - one doing rename and 
another adding/changing things.

I was looking at:
+	links = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(struct snd_soc_dai_link) *
+					sof_ssp_amp_card.num_links, GFP_KERNEL);
+	cpus = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(struct snd_soc_dai_link_component) *
+					sof_ssp_amp_card.num_links, GFP_KERNEL);

and wondered where sof_ssp_amp_card.num_links comes from, and it only 
shows up 4 times in removed file, but 6 times in added one, which tells 
me that things changed, but it is hard to see what, when the diff shows 
whole files being moved instead of things that changed.
