The reason for this change is that we want to monitor the codec drivers
related to maxim chip as we saw couple of changes which shouldn't have
been taken and since we were not involved when the review was being
done we couldn't contribute our opinion.

What is the best way to go about this? We have given maxim driver
code to our various clients and some of the clients contributed the
code to linux kernel. I will try to get acks from them anyway.
