For various types, there seem to be a few hundred of these, eg:

static const struct hda_pcm_stream alc269_44k_pcm_analog_playback = {
        .rates = SNDRV_PCM_RATE_44100, /* fixed rate */
};

static const struct hda_pcm_stream alc269_44k_pcm_analog_capture = {
        .rates = SNDRV_PCM_RATE_44100, /* fixed rate */
};

Would it be desirable to remove them?  I guess one would have to check
that there are not any pointer equality checks on these values.  Would it
be useful to put a #define to keep the orignal names?
