- Removal of dead rtctimer driver

HD-audio:
- Native ELD notify support for i915 HDMI
- Realtek ALC234 & co support
- Code refactoring to standardize chmap support
- Continued development for SKL HDMI core support

Firewire:
- Apply delayed card registration to all drivers
- Improved / stabilized the handling of PCM stream start / stop
- Add tracepoints to dump a part of isochronous packet data
- Fixed incoming/outgoing packet parameter usages
- Add support for M-Audio profire series

USB-audio:
- Fixes for UAC2 clock source
- SS+ support
- Workaround for oft-seen repeated sample rate read errors

ASoC:
- Further slow progress on the topology code
- Substantial updates and improvements for the da7219, es8328,
  fsl-ssi, Intel and rcar drivers.
