Previously ak4531_codec.o was build to a module snd-ak4531-codec (similar to snd-ice17xx-ak4xxx) but for some reason resided in /pci/ac97 directory. Now it has been moved to /pci, but the Makefiles do not create a separate module, but attempt to build it into snd-ens1370, where the conflict of author and description occur. If those are //out of ak4531_codec.c then the build does continue through this (to another error -dealing with separately), and there is no separate module. To create a separate module instead, presumably the Makefiles need to be fixed, and the module dependancies? Which is the prefered arrangement?
