Hi Ralf

I was looking at doing some of that last remaining ioctl bkl-pushdowns, in 
particular in:
sound/oss/swarm_cs4297a.c
sound/oss/msnd_pinnacle.c
sound/oss/sh_dac_audio.c
sound/oss/vwsnd.c
sound/oss/dmasound/dmasound_core.c
sound/oss/dmasound/dmasound_core.c

when I noticed they were including asm files from mips. I went so far as 
to compile my own mips tool chain, but I wasn't able to compile the above.
Being oss sound, I was wondering if these are still maintained or are 
marked for removal some time in the future.

If there is merely a problem with my toolchain, then that can be fixed, 
but there is no point in wasting time with these if no-one uses them.

Thanks

John
