sound updates for 4.2-rc1 It was a busy development cycle at this time, as you can see a wide range of changes in diffstat. There are no big changes but many refactoring and improvements. Here we go some highlights: * ALSA core: - Procfs codes were cleaned up to use seq_file - Procfs can be opt out via Kconfig (only for EXPERT) - Two types of jack API were unified finally; now both kctl and input jack devs are handled via a single function call. * HD-audio - Continued code restructuring for the future ASoC driver; now HDA controller driver is split to a core helper module. - Preliminary codes for Skylake audio support in HDA core. - Proper i915 gfx power well management for SKL & co - Enabled runtime PM as default for Intel HDMI/DP codecs - Newer Tegra chip supports - More quirks for Dell headsets, Alienware (with CA0132), etc. - A couple of DRM ELD helper API functions * ASoC - Support for loading ASoC topology maps from firmware, intended to be used to allow self-describing DSP firmware images to be built which can map controls added by the DSP to userspace without the kernel needing to know about individual DSP firmwares - Lots of refactoring to avoid direct access to snd_soc_codec where it's not needed supporting future refactoring - Big refactoring, cleanup and enhancement for the Wolfson ADSP driver - Cleanup series for TI TAS2552 and R-CAR drivers - Fixes and improvements on RT56xx codecs - Support for TI TAS571x power amplifiers - Support for Qualcomm APQ8016 and ZTE ZX296702 SoCs - Support for x86 systems with RT5650 and Qualcomm Storm - Support for Mediatek AFE (Audio Front End) unit - Other various small fixes to ASoC codec drivers * Firewire - Enhanced to allow non-blocking streams to use timestamp synchronization - Improve support for DM1500 and BeBoBv3 * Misc - Cleanup of old pci API functions over all PCI sound drivers - Fix long-standing regression of the old powermac i2c setup
