ASoC Machine Driver
===================
-The ASoC machine (or board) driver is the code that glues together the platform
-and codec drivers.
+The ASoC machine (or board) driver is the code that glues together all the
+component drivers (e.g. codecs, platforms and DAIs). It also describes the
+relationships between each componnent which include audio paths, GPIOs,
+interrupts, clocking, jacks and voltage regulators.
The machine driver can contain codec and platform specific code. It registers
the audio subsystem with the kernel as a platform device and is represented by
