Mark Brown is using the board for testing eight Cirrus/Wolfson audio codecs: - arizona and wm8994 have actual users with DT, but this is the board he has for testing with platform_data - wm0010, wm1250-ev1, wm5100, wm8996 and wm9081 have no other upstream users besides this board and no DT support, so arguably these are probably obsolete and could also be removed. I assume Charles can comment on how important the testing still is for the codec above, or if there is other hardware that could be used for testing the arizona and wm8994 drivers in case the other ones are in fact as obsolete as they appear.
