Covert sam9g20 wm8731 to device tree support And enable it through dts file Tested on sam9g20 EK boardThis needs to add binding documentation for the board.
I will add the binding documentation in next version.

+ dai: dai { + compatible = "atmel,atmel-ssc-dai"; + atmel,dai-master = <&ssc0>; + };This looks wrong - this is a Linux-specific virtual device sitting on top of the SSC which is the actual physical device. The usual patterns would be something like have the machine driver register the DAI based on the SSC specified in the bindings (much like how you're handling the platform already).
I have a question for this, do all nodes in dts file should be physical device? The SSC part is a little different with other SoC family. So, I think, if I keep the ssc driver in driver/misc folder as the library code. And create new code into sound/soc/atmel for ssc which used for audio, would this be acceptable? If so, the framework will be the same with other SoC family.
