This patch1 is fine, but you remove this function in patch2, so is this
patch needed at all?

-/* Retrieve and return channel count from channel mask */
-static inline int sdw_ch_mask_to_ch(unsigned int ch_mask)
-{
-	int c = 0;
-
-	for (c = 0; ch_mask; ch_mask >>= 1)
-		c += ch_mask & 1;
-
-	return c;
-}
