[linux-cirrus] Using the EP93xx I2S Driver

I was hopping that someone could help me get started with using the EP93xx
I2S driver that Chase Douglas did. 

I've built it along with the patches from Lennert Buytenhek. For the
AC97/PCM/DMA. I see the device in the kernel messages but when I try: 
"cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp" I get 
"-sh: cannot create /dev/dsp: No such device"

I do not have a codec attached to the EP9302's I2S, just an FPGA. I don't
know if that matters.

Thanks
