The SoundMax chips are indeed AC'97 codecs (from Analog Devices), but
the driver to use depends on the AC'97 controller.  Currently, there
are three types of controllers built into motherboard chipsets; the
drivers for these are snd-intel8x0, snd-via82xx, and snd-atiixp.

In this case, snd-atiixp is correct.

The entry hasn't been written yet, but this driver doesn't need any
special configuration.  Just look at the intel8x0 entry and replace
the module name with snd-atiixp.
