This is so trivial that I'm wondering why you even need it, it does
essentially nothing except for manage power on and off, and that isn't
synced up with the rest of the audio subsystem in any discernable way.
Previous Samsung SoCs have quite happily ignored their LPASS subsystems
in mainline.  As things stand I'm concerned that systems may get broken
if more functionality is added without the joining up with the rest of
the audio hardware via a card, there's not even the hooks which would
allow that.
