thanks, applied to cvs with minor modifications.
i changed the put callback to compare with the old value to avoid the
no necessary performance.  too often i2c transfer can be problematic
when a crazy mixer apps accesses to mixer elements.

well, such a thing should be done on user-space rather than on
kernel.  let's postpone this until the new highlevel mixer functions
become available.

hmm, could be the mismatch of cristal rate?
i don't find out the critical path in the driver yet.
