ALSA: hda: Drop old codec binding method

2025-07-11T07:55:38+00:00

Now that all patch_ops usage have been converted to the new hda_codec_ops probe, we can drop patch_ops from the hda_codec, together with the calls of patch_ops callbacks. The hda_codec_ops.free callback is removed as all have been replaced with the new remove callback. Also, correct comments mentioning "patch"; it's replaced with "codec driver".

ALSA: hda: Move codec drivers into sound/hda/codecs directory

2025-07-11T07:55:37+00:00

Now move the all remaining codec drivers from sound/pci/hda to sound/hda/codecs subdirectory. Some drivers are put under the further vendor subdirectory, and the vendor helper code (*_helper.c) are put under helpers subdirectory. Also the sub-codec drivers are moved under a different subdirectory, sound/hda/codecs/sub-codecs, for distinguishing from the main HD-audio codec drivers. The prefix patch_ and hda_ as well as the suffix _helper are dropped from file names as they are mostly superfluous. No functional changes but just file path shuffling.
