As a result of investigation for Fireface 800, 'struct snd_ff_spec.regs'
is just for higher address to receive tx asynchronous packets of MIDI
messages, thus it can be simplified.

This commit simplifies it.

This commit adds a functionality to multiplex PCM frames into isochronous
packets and demultiplex PCM frames from isochronous packets for ALSA PCM
applications.

Fireface 800 voluntarily maintains resources for tx isochronous
communication.  It performs reservation of isochronous channel and
allocation/update of bandwidth in some cases below:
 - at a first request to allocation after bus resets
 - at requests to allocation when further bandwidth is required

When request is grant and the unit is prepared, read data from
0x0000801c0008 represents isochronous channel for tx stream, then
the unit can handle requests to start communication. If driver
send the request without checking the register, the unit takes
panic to continue bus resets. The unit starts transmission of
tx packets after receiving several rx packets from driver.

I note that the unit can process tx/rx packets and generate/record
sound regardless of HOST LED.

Fireface 800 is a flagship model of RME GmbH for audio and music units
on IEEE 1394 bus, shipped 2004. This model consists of four chips:
 - TI TSB81BA3D for physical layer on cable environment of EEE 1394 bus
 - TI TSB82AA2 for link layer for 1394 OHCI bus bridge to PCI bus
 - Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA XC3S400
 - Xilinx High-Performance CPLD XC9572XL

This commit adds support Fireface 800. In this time, the support is
restricted to its MIDI functionality, thus this commit adds some
condition statements to avoid touching streaming functionality.

Unlike Fireface 400, Fireface 800 has no functionality to suppress
asynchronous transactions for MIDI messages except for unregister of
listen address in controller side, thus the feature is available as is.

Fireface 400 and 800 have the same mechanism to decide address to which
asynchronous transactions are sent for MIDI messages, however they use
different registers for controllers to notify higher 4 byte of the
address.

This commit adds a model-specific parameter to represent the address.
Additionally, it corrects some comments. I note that these two models have
a difference to enable/disable the transaction.

In former commits, .private_free callback releases resources just for
data transmission. This release function can be called without the
resources are actually allocated in error paths.

This commit applies a small refactoring to clean up codes in error
paths.

In a previous commit, drivers in ALSA firewire stack blocks .remove
callback of bus driver. This enables to release members of private
data in the callback after releasing device of sound card.

This commit simplifies codes to release the members.

<title>ALSA: firewire: block .remove callback of bus driver till all of ALSA character devices are released</title>

<content type='text'>
At present, in .remove callback of bus driver just decrease reference
count of device for ALSA card instance. This delegates release of the
device to a process in which the last of ALSA character device is
released.

On the other hand, the other drivers such as for devices on PCIe are
programmed to block .remove callback of bus driver till all of ALSA
character devices are released.

For consistency of behaviour for whole drivers, this probably confuses
users. This commit takes drivers in ALSA firewire stack to imitate the
above behaviour.

At present, private data of each driver in ALSA firewire stack is
allocated/freed by kernel slab allocator for corresponding unit on
IEEE 1394 bus. In this case, resource-managed slab allocator is
available to release memory object automatically just before releasing
device structure for the unit. This idea can prevent runtime from
memory leak due to programming mistakes.

This commit uses the allocator for the private data. These drivers
already use reference counter to maintain lifetime of device structure
for the unit by a pair of fw_unit_get()/fw_unit_put(). The private data
is safely released in a callback of 'struct snd_card.private_free().

Fireface 400 is a second model of RME Fireface series, released in 2006.
This commit adds support for this model.

This model supports 8 analog channels, 2 S/PDIF channels and 8 ADAT
channels in both of tx/rx packet. The number of ADAT channels differs
depending on each mode of sampling transmission frequency.
