Not sure if I understood your comments. Several media drivers have alsa drivers:
saa7134, em28xx, cx231xx, etc. The audio drivers for them are also under
/drivers/media, as it is not easy to de-couple audio and video/radio part
on those devices. For bttv and some USB boards (that use snd-usb-audio), the audio
part is at /sound, as the audio part on them are independent and don't need to
share anything, as audio is provided by a completely independent group of
I suggest to use the same logic for wl1273.
