If any OSS support is enabled, regardless of built-in or module,
sound_core claims full OSS major number (that is, the old 0-255
region) to trap open attempts and request sound modules using custom
module aliases. This feature is redundant as chrdev already has such
mechanism. This preemptive claiming prevents alternative OSS
implementation.
The custom module aliases are scheduled to be removed and the previous
patch made soundcore emit the standard chrdev aliases too to help
transition.
This patch schedule the feature for removal in a year and makes it
optional so that developers and distros can try new things in the
meantime without rebuilding the kernel. The pre-claiming can be
turned off by using SOUND_OSS_CORE_PRECLAIM and/or kernel parameter
soundcore.preclaim_oss.
As this allows sound minors to be individually grabbed by other users,
this patch updates sound_insert_unit() such that if registering
individual device region fails, it tries the next available slot.
For details on removal plan, please read the entry added by this patch
in feature-removal-schedule.txt .

sound/sound_core.c implements soundcore.ko and contains two parts -
sound_class which is shared by both ALSA and OSS and device
redirection support for OSS. It's always compiled when any sound
support is enabled although it's necessary only when OSS (the actual
one or emulation) is enabled. This is slightly wasteful and as device
redirection always registers character device region for major 14, it
prevents alternative implementation.
This patch introduces a new config SOUND_OSS_CORE which is selected
iff OSS support is actually necessary and build the OSS core part
conditionally.
If OSS is disabled, soundcore merely contains sound_class but leaving
it that way seems to be the simplest approach as otherwise sound_class
should be in ALSA core file if OSS is disabled but should be in
soundcore if OSS is enabled. Also, there's also the user confusion
factor.

CONFIG_AC97_BUS is used from both sound and ucb1400 drivers.
The recent change in Kconfig introduced the exclusive dependency on
CONFIG_SOUND, and disabled the ucb1400 build without sound.
This patch makes CONFIG_AC97_BUS independent.

Commit 2d4ba4a3b9 introduced a dependency
that was never meant to exist when the ac97_bus.c module was created.
Move ac97_bus.c up the directory hierarchy to make sure it is built when
selected even if sound is configured out so things work as originally
intended.

This large patch adds all of snd-aoa.
Consisting of many modules, it currently replaces snd-powermac
for all layout-id based machines and handles many more (for
example new powerbooks and powermacs with digital output that
previously couldn't be used at all).
It also has support for all layout-IDs that Apple has (judging
from their Info.plist file) but not all are tested.
The driver currently has 2 known regressions over snd-powermac:
* it doesn't handle powermac 7,2 and 7,3
* it doesn't have a DRC control on snapper-based machines
I will fix those during the 2.6.18 development cycle.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
