Mauro,

The code does take into account devices that provide I2S audio.
However, I think you may be correct that if I2S audio is configured,
the driver will not load.  I think I'm going to need to rework the
patch a bit.  The correct behavior should be that the em28xx-audio
driver should only be loaded if vendor audio is required (either AC97
or I2S), and it appears that my logic didn't accomplish that [I
confused an "if()" for an "else if()"].
