That bit is very common but there's still machine specific aspects - is
the required hardware wired up, if it is wired up how exactly are things
wired (separate microphone jack, headset jack, one of many jacks?). A
lot of the machine driver part of things is about labeling things so
that it can be displayed in a way that's easy to connect to the physical
system. Generally the machine driver would define a jack and then
connect the CODEC to it.
