The patch looks good, but just a minor concern:

Shouldn't we define some standard name scheme?
This one has "hdac_agg", while the patch for HD-audio Realtek stuff
has "realtek_aggregate".

(And maybe the latter one should be something like
"hda_realtek_agg" or such, as Realtek covers pretty different devices
and there might be conflict in future.)

With those considered: please take my ack
