294c4fb8ab ALSA: usb: refine delay information with USB frame counter
Existing code only updates the audio delay when URBs were
submitted/retired. This can introduce an uncertainty of 8ms
on the number of samples played out with the default settings,
and a lot more when URBs convey more packets to reduce the
interrupt rate and power consumption.

This patch relies on the USB frame counter to reduce the
uncertainty to less than 2ms worst-case. The delay information
essentially becomes independent of the URB size and number of
packets. This should help applications like PulseAudio which
require accurate audio timing. Clemens Ladisch reported
a decrease of mplayer's A-V difference from nrpacks down to at
most 1ms.

Thanks to Clemens for also pointing out that the implementation
of frame counters varies between different HCDs. Only the
8 lowest-bits are used to estimate the delay.

89e1e66d6b ALSA: usb-audio: automatically detect feedback format
There are two USB Audio Class specifications (v1 and v2), but neither of
them clearly defines the feedback format for high-speed UAC v1 devices.
Add to this whatever the Creative and M-Audio firmware writers have been
smoking, and it becomes impossible to predict the exact feedback format
used by a particular device.

Therefore, automatically detect the feedback format by looking at the
magnitude of the first received feedback value.

Also, this allows us to get rid of some special cases for E-Mu devices.

79f920fbff ALSA: usb-audio: parse clock topology of UAC2 devices
Audio devices which comply to the UAC2 standard can export complex clock
topologies in its descriptors and set up links between them.

The entities that are defined are

 - clock sources, which define the end-leafs.
 - clock selectors, which act as switch to select one out of many
   possible clocks sources.
 - clock multipliers, which have an input clock source, and act as clock
   source again. They can be used to derive one clock from another.

All sample rate changes, clock validity queries and the like must go to
clock source elements, while clock selectors and multipliers can be used
as terminal clock source.

The following patch adds a parser for these elements and functions to
iterate over the tree and find the leaf nodes (clock sources).

The samplerate set functions were moved to the new clock.c file.

015eb0b081 ALSA: usb-audio: use a format bitmask per alternate setting
In preparation for USB audio 2.0 support, change the audioformat
structure so that it uses a bitmask to specify possible formats.

e11b4e0e4f ALSA: usb-audio: rename substream format field to altset_idx
The snd_usb_substream::format field actually contains the index of the
current alternate setting, so rename it to altset_idx to avoid
confusion.

e5779998bf ALSA: usb-audio: refactor code
Clean up the usb audio driver by factoring out a lot of functions to
separate files. Code for procfs, quirks, urbs, format parsers etc all
got a new home now.

Moved almost all special quirk handling to quirks.c and introduced new
generic functions to handle them, so the exceptions do not pollute the
whole driver.

Renamed usbaudio.c to card.c because this is what it actually does now.
Renamed usbmidi.c to midi.c for namespace clarity.
Removed more things from usbaudio.h.

The non-standard drivers were adopted accordingly.
