Linus Torvalds da2577fe63 sound updates for 5.1
We had again a busy development cycle with many new drivers as well as
 lots of core improvements / cleanups.  Let's go for highlights:
 
 ALSA core:
 - PCM locking scheme was refactored for reducing a global rwlock
 - PCM suspend is handled in the device type PM ops now; lots of
   explicit calls were reduced by this action
 - Cleanups about PCM buffer preallocation calls
 - Kill NULL device object in memory allocations
 - Lots of procfs API cleanups
 
 ASoC core:
 - Support for only powering up channels that are actively being used
 - Cleanups / fixes of topology API
 
 ASoC drivers:
 - MediaTek BTCVSD for a Bluetooth radio chip, which is the first such
   driver we've had upstream!
 - Quite a few improvements to simplify the generic card drivers,
   especially the merge of the SCU cards into the main generic drivers
 - Lots of fixes for probing on Intel systems to follow more standard
   styles
 - A big refresh and cleanup of the Samsung drivers
 - New drivers: Asahi Kasei Microdevices AK4497, Cirrus Logic CS4341
   and CS35L26, Google ChromeOS embedded controllers, Ingenic JZ4725B,
   MediaTek BTCVSD, MT8183 and MT6358, NXP MICFIL, Rockchip RK3328,
   Spreadtrum DMA controllers, Qualcomm WCD9335, Xilinx S/PDIF and PCM
   formatters
 
 ALSA drivers:
 - Improvements of Tegra HD-audio controller driver for supporting new
   chips
 - HD-audio codec quirks for ALC294 S4 resume, ASUS laptop, Chrome
   headset button support and Dell workstations
 - Improved DSD support on USB-audio
 - Quirk for MOTU MicroBook II USB-audio
 - Support for Fireface UCX support and Solid State Logic Duende
   Classic/Mini

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
