Separate trees seem to be clearly not working well for everyone
atm. I'm reading the discomfort on all sides here.

Vinod, how often do you merge on ALSA/ASoC ? Would it not make more
sense to be part of ALSA to ease workflow (including yours) ? 

This model worked well for soundwire's predecessors (AC97 and HDA)
which like soundwire were primarily audio busses with secondary non
audio features.
