Ok, would _SND_AC97_CODEC_H be better ?

Right, for RFC v2.

Ah yes, that's a leftover from a former idea, I'll remove that comment.

In the initial code I'd done "struct ac97_codec_device" was hidden from this
file (ie. there was only a "struct ac97_codec_device;" statement), the body of
the struct was contained in sound/ac97/ac97_core.h.

The only provided macro to access the "struct device" inside "struct
ac97_codec_device" was relying on this "trick" (that's a bit like in the
video4linux area).

Anyway, good point, I'll remove that.

Ah no, unfortunately not, or rather not yet.

I tried that one, not very hard, but at least ac97_bus_match() with the pair
"struct ac97_id *id = adrv->id_table" and "do { } while (++id->id);" is not
possible AFAIK with a const.

I will see if I can come up with something better for ac97_bus_match, such as
array usage instead of pointer arithmetics.

The same leftover than above, I'll change that for RFC v2.

Initially it was to distinguish 2 different AC97 controllers. In the current
patchset state, it's not usefull anymore AFAICS.
So let's remove it.

>> +	int bound_codecs;
The same comment would apply here. I don't think that information is important
anymore. I thought I would use that to prevent AC97 controler removal while
codecs are still bound.

In a second thought what would be better is to have get_device() called for each
bound codec which will prevent ac97_digital_controller_unregister() to succeed
(-EBUSY).

Ouch ;) I'll amend that for RFC v2.

There should be, so I'll put that on my TODO list for RFC v2.

Agreed. For RFC v2.

You mean returning 0 even if the read failed, right ?
A better prototype would probably be (for RFC v2):
  int ac97_bus_scan_one(struct ac97_controller *ac97, int codec_num,
                        unsigned int *vendor_id);

Ah you mean upon ac97 controller registration, the
ac97_digital_controller_register() should provide the information for each of
the 4 slots :
 - does the controller enable this slot (default yes)
 - does the controller support auto-scan for this slot (default yes)
   I'm not sure this "feature" is required, it looks a bit over-engineered.

That could be a matter of 1 or 2 masks as input parameters to
ac97_digital_controller_register().

Ok, for RFC v2.

Thanks for your review and feedbacks Takashi, I'll work on both Mark and your
comments in the next weeks.

Cheers.
