Also note that tegra20_ac97 code doesn't check the returned value of:

gpio_request(workdata->sync_gpio, "codec-sync");

That is a bit fragile. Probably would be better to move the GPIO requesting to
the drivers probe function using the devm_gpio_request_one() and fail the
driver probing if requesting fails. That should be a distinct patch if you'll
want to implement that.
