Basically the change for USB-audio driver is a kind of add-on/plugin; that is, it allows the platform_ops to override some operations of the standard USB-audio driver for supporting the offload operations. So, in that sense, this add-on itself is neither per-bus nor per-device, and it's fine as a single pointer for now, IMO, since this is the only known use case and it'd simplify the code. If we'll have more similar requirements in future, we may extend the implementation and the API to allow the registration of multiple addons, too. Though, there are a few obvious coding issues in the current patches, and they have to be addressed, sure :) thanks, Takashi
