In my copious, copious free time I'll try to replace the ASoC code with
this for test.  I did a regulator parch against one of the previous
versions which has acks and so on, if you don't get that merged along
with this (the external interface didn't change I think) then I'll do so
myself as soon as this hits mainline or somewhere mergable.
