I cannot comment on the input stuff, but the sound stuff looks good
overall.

Why is this feature needed? Does the device report key releases
incorrectly?
These three sysfs controls could also be implemented as mixer controls.
This would allow them to be automatically saved and restored when the
computer is shut down.

Your mailer wrapped long lines and killed the tabs.
Please see <Documentation/email-clients.txt>.
And your code looks as if it does not use eight-column tabs for
indention.

This return value is never used.

If you're using the atomic variable to protect against some concurrently
executing code, then you have a race condition in the time interval
between the read and the set.

This isn't quite how output ports are supposed to be implemented. :-)
I'd guess you want to remove the OUTPUT and DUPLEX flags and to drop all
output-related functions.

You have only one substream, a boolean variable would suffice.

These variables are not variable and therefore not needed.

This function is intended for sound cards that are composed of several
components, and the component name is usually a chip name. I think
you don't need to call this function at all.

snd_card_register() makes all sound interfaces available to userspace.
Initializations for any data that might be accessed from userspace must
be done before that call.
