Merge tag 'sound-3.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound
Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
"The biggest change in this update is the unification of HD-audio codec
parsers. Now the HD-audio codec is parsed in a generic parser code
which is invoked by each HD-audio codec driver.
Some background information is found in David Henningsson's blog
entry:
http://voices.canonical.com/david.henningsson/2013/01/18/upcoming-changes-to-the-intel-hda-drivers/
Other than that, some random updates/fixes like USB-audio and a bunch
of small AoC updates as usual.
Highlights:
- Unification of HD-audio parser code (aka generic parser)
- Support of new Intel HD-audio controller, new IDT codecs
- Fixes for HD-audio HDMI audio hotplug
- Haswell HDMI audio fixup
- Support of Creative CA0132 DSP code
- A few fixes of HDSP driver
- USB-audio fix for Roland A-PRO, M-Audio FT C600
- Support PM for aloop driver (and fixes Oops)
- Compress API updates for gapless playback support
For ASoC part:
- Support for a wider range of hardware in the compressed stream code
- The ability to mute capture streams as well as playback streams
while inactive
- DT support for AK4642, FSI, Samsung I2S and WM8962
- AC'97 support for Tegra
- New driver for max98090, replacing the stub which was there
- A new driver from Dialog
Note that due to dependencies, DTification of DMA support for Samsung
platforms (used only by the and I2S driver and SPI) is merged here as
well."
Fix up trivial conflict in drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c due to removed code
being changed.
