I guess I should explain this one a little more.

There is an existing I2S driver in mach-tegra that has nothing to do with
the new ALSA driver in sound/soc. It exports a custom interface to various
user-space code which controls the associated codec etc. Currently, this
driver is unconditionally compiled into the kernel, and this patch simply
allows the user not to compile it in, so that it won't conflict with the
new ALSA I2S driver.

In the long term (or perhaps even short term), I wonder if this non-ALSA
driver will simply go away.

Thanks.
