Yeah, I picked up _ prefix so that name indicates that these functions
are more like for internal use and drivers should use them only
exceptionally. What I'm thinking if we can rid of them completely.

support DAI-less codecs/amplifiers. If that would be possible then
there is no need to register controls from other drivers in machine DAI
init. Well, CPU DAI controls are possible but they don't need a prefix
I think.

Sorry, I didn't emphasis this well enough that this hack was
temporary just after your comment to first version and it got finally
removed in yesterday's version :-)

Ok, makes sense.

Prefixing is not problem I think since we can specify them in
machine's audio map (like two mono amplifiers registered to 1st codec
are prefixed below) but how to link DAPMs of two codec together?
static const struct snd_soc_dapm_route audio_map1[] = {
{"Left AMP input", NULL, "LLOUT"},
{"Right AMP input, NULL, "RLOUT"},
{"Speaker", NULL, "Left AMP output"},
{"Speaker, NULL, "Right AMP output"},
{"Codec B Left input"}, NULL, "LLOUT"},
{"Codec B Right input"}, NULL, "RLOUT"},
};
static const struct snd_soc_dapm_route audio_map2[] = {
{"foo bar", NULL, "Codec B Left input"},
{"foo bar", NULL, "Codec B Right input"},
};
