Subject: question about sound/soc/intel/boards/mfld_machine.c

Hello,

I wonder if the file sound/soc/intel/boards/mfld_machine.c is useful?
Until:

commit e56c72d5f201044b14191c5b83a25e17f2d68ccf

ASoC: Intel: create boards folder and move sst boards files in

it was in the directory sound/soc/intel and mentioned in
sound/soc/intel/Makefile. The above patch moved it to
sound/soc/intel/boards/, but didn't adjust its Makefile entry. The patch:

commit b97169da06992ef04081e66ed22bbdb23dbf6610

ASoC: Intel: create atom folder and move atom platform files in

removed it from sound/soc/intel/Makefile, but didn't move it anywhere.
As far as I can tell, there is currently no make information for the file
in the kernel.

Should the file be dropped?

Thanks for reporting, Julia. I believe this is missed during the folder
restruction.

Hi Vinod, what do you think? If needed, I can add it to intel/Kconfig.

Thanks,

Yeah looks like a miss. This is also a fact that noone is using this, at
least from upstream, so maybe removing it is not such a bad idea..??
