Can you point to an example of the new way?

I need a unique name for the DMA device in soc_dai_link.  This was the
easiest way. Especially since both ac97 and i2s can be active at
runtime.

I like to pass the DMA id's along with the ac97/i2s resource
information (since they
belong together anyway). As an added benefit I get a sensibly named dma device
with the correct DMA information, all by simply registering the ac97
platform device.

I'll think about a way to change it.


Thank you!
