Your changelog appears to describe the writing of a machine driver but
this is a large patch adding code to an I2S controller driver.  This
means I can't review your patch since I can't tell what it is supposed
to do.  If you've added functionality to this driver you need to send
one or more patches each of which adds a single feature to the driver
together with a changelog which describes what that feature is.

Glancing at the patch I'm not 100% sure that the features you're adding
are part of the Synopsis device but I'm not entirely sure.

No, this doesn't make sense - the fact that someone has used a Synopsis
I2S controller doesn't mean that they have a system which uses
simple-card.  If the user wants to use simple-card they need to enable
it separately, this is the same pattern we follow for all CPU controller
drivers.
