This is, I'm sure, more a generic POSIX question than NuttX-specific but I am 
still not that familiar with either!

When I wrote the SAMA5D2 ClassD audio driver I followed the methods appropriate 
for using "apb" so it works well with nxplayer (for example).

But I want to play simple audio tones, from a sine look-up table, and filling a 
buffer and enqueuing it seems over the top.

Is there any reason - from a "correctness" point of view - I couldn't add a 
basic file write function to the driver that allows you to simply fwrite to the 
opened device and have it dump data that way?

A simple piece of code that simply writes to the processor audio sample buffer, 
word at a time, and polls the "ready" bit works 100% fine but this is not 
portable! So if such an interface is not "right" I won't add it :)
