Dave, do you prefer the way with an ops struct as Alan suggested?

For example, I can make like

struct vga_switcheroo_client_ops {
       void (*set_gpu_state)(struct pci_dev *dev, enum vga_switcheroo_state),
       void (*reprobe)(struct pci_dev *dev),
       bool (*can_switch)(struct pci_dev *dev));
};

and pass the pointer to vga_switcher_register_client() and
vga_switcher_register_audio_client().

If it's preferred, I'll work on it and resend you a pull request later.

BTW, I modified topic/vga-switcheroo branch of sound git tree again.
Now it contains only two commits I posted here.  The rest commits for
HD-audio are found in topic/hda-switcheroo branch.


thanks,

Takashi
