I just looked at it again and it looks like no code in sound/soc/pxa/* or 
sound/arm/pxa* depends on AACI in any way. Therefore, I believe that to fix 
this correctly, I would have to remove "select SND_ARM" from sound/soc/pxa/
Kconfig and optionally move the PXA2xx code out of sound/arm/ and into sound/
soc/pxa/. Is this correct? If so, I'd also split that fix into a separate 
series.
