I think yes.  If not, you can create a include directory in your
staging driver path, then set $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) to point there in
Makefile of the hdmi audio driver.

So, these bit-fields data aren't exposed to the hardware as is, but
used only between the hdmi audio and the controller drivers?
(But then, why these have to be defined in here?)
