Hi Arjun,

If the changes you intend to make to the alsa driver are intended to
be generic and not OLPC specific, then I encourage you to CC the
alsa-devel mailing list since AD1888 AC97 code is shared. The naming
changes you propose look fine except for number 2, since not all mics
don't need bias so calling it Mic Enable may not be accurate. I think
Mitch's suggestion of "Mic Bias Enable" is a good one.

Best regards,
