In my opinion the ASoC drivers can go through the ASoC tree. The core
patches will build without the ASoC patches and the ASoC drivers wont
be selectable without the core patches. Thus we wont see any build
failures due to merging both parts individually. And given that there
will be some changes required when the multi-component branch is
merged it will simplify things if the patches only go through one tree.
I've talked to Ralf and he said he is ok with it.
