Yes, agree.

OK.I will change this wherever possible.

The hardware supports I2S, DSP A/B modes, currently it is configured in DSP
B mode. May be changing all the function names from davinci_i2s_mcasp_XXX()
to davinci_mcasp_xxx() will avoid confusion. Along with this, the
file names can be changed to davinci-mcasp.c[h].

Are you referring to the two DAI links in this driver?
They are two instances of the same hardware, therefore tied to
each other. For future chips, the instances may change. Therefore, the
number of links should come from the platform data and hard coding it
to 2 is not right. I will correct this.

OK, will look into this.
