So now just so I (and all of the rest of us, I'll assume) understand
this sequence correctly, let me see if I can document the history of
this somewhat confusion affair:

1. I basically import Sujal's changes blind and break the tree.

2.  I also change his local.h stuff a little so that defining something
    like AUDIO_SB16 also drags in AUDIO_SB, which seems to be necessary,
    and make other sections of the code less dependant on AUDIO_SBPRO since
    the absence of it causes a lot of sections to go away that are needed
    by AUDIO_SB16.  In short, I try to eliminate needless "hierarchy" where
    it appears and introduce some where it's lacking (AUDIO_SB16 becomes a
    superset).  This all resulted in the tree at least compiling properly for
    the SB16.

3. Sujan and I establish that things, while now compiling, are still pretty
   broken and we begin a dialog for backing out parts of the soundcard.c
   and dmabuf.c changes.  I do so, but don't follow-up with a test since I
   haven't managed to be anywhere near my SB16 card in the last 24 hours.

4. I see Steven's changes in my mailbox in the morning.

If you (Steven) have simply brought over Sujal's changes again but
with more actual thought put into the process then I applaud this
effort and thank you for stepping into a matter I was simply too busy
to handle (rather a LOT going on here right now, let me tell you!).

If you've simply spammed my changes in #2, then I urge you to discuss
this with Sujal and Andrew so that you can some up with some other
solution for the "hierarchy" problem.

Also, there were a LOT of warnings induced by this upgrade, at least
in the last snapshot I saw, so somebody may also want to look into those
if they're still there.

Thanks!
