Thanks for the feedback, will send a formal patch with the helper and machine driver changes after I test more with the legacy drivers. Do you have a preference for one patch that deals with multiple machines drivers in one shot, or individual patches? The latter are nicer for backports (e.g. for Chrome), the former nicer for maintainers... The goal of reusing machine drivers as is isn't really achievable anyways, it looks like we are going to have additional changes, e.g. if we want to avoid the calls to snd_pcm_suspend as suggested by Takashi, we'll have to add a reference to snd_soc_pm_ops that's only used for SOF, the Atom/SST driver does things in different ways mostly due to historical reasons. -Pierre
