ASoC - you've misspelt this throughout.
This changelog should discuss the subset of devices supported by your
binding, it's only possible to define bindings like this for a subset of
possible cards. Looking at the code it seems like this driver can only
work for CODECs which require no runtime configuration (which is a very
small subset of CODEC drivers).

Audio bindings generally go under sound.

What are the allowable values for these strings?

It seems wrong that this depends on both AC'97 and I2S - users should be
able to use one or the other. Given how AC'97 works we really should be
defining it as a bus in the device tree anyway, and ideally trying to
enumerate the CODECs at runtime, so it should probably be a separate
binding.

Remove this for mainline.
