I agree all these should be studied and worked further. However, I would
still like to merge this series in the next merge window:

a) The series does fix the OMAP HDMI audio, so that users can actually
use it.

b) The series does make the driver model much better, so that I can
actually be bothered to keep it enabled (earlier, even when it more or
less worked, it was too much hassle when doing development using modules).
