Merge tag 'sound-5.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound
Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai: "As shown in diffstat and logs, it was again a busy development cycle at this time, too. The most significant changes are still on-going refactoring / modernization works for ASoC core and drivers, but there are lots of other changes as well. Here we go, some highlights below: ASoC: - Quite a lot of cleanup / refactoring of ASoC core and APIs; most of them are systematic, but also including cleanups and modernization - A bulk of updates for some ASoC platforms, Freescale, sunxi and Intel SST/SOF - Initial support for Sound Open Firmware on i.MX8 - Removal of deprecated w90x900 and nuc900 drivers - New support for Cirrus Logic CS47L15 and CS47L92, Freescale i.MX 7ULP and 8MQ, Meson G12A and NXP UDA1334 USB-audio: - More validations of descriptor units for hardening against bugs reported by fuzzers - PCM device assignment workaround for a past call-order change - Scarlett Gen2 mixer interface, a few more more quirks HD-audio: - Support for audio component with AMD/ATI and Nvidia HDMI codecs - Clean up HD-audio core and remove indirect access ops for Intel SOF - DMIC detection at probe; it would make systems automatically falling back to SST/SOF driver on devices that need DMIC handling. Needs a new Kconfig to set, and beware that it's still new and a bit experimental FireWire: - Lots of code refactoring and cleanups" * tag 'sound-5.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound: (521 commits) ASoC: sdm845: remove unneeded semicolon ASoC: fsl_sai: Implement set_bclk_ratio ASoC: dmaengine: Replace strncpy() with strscpy_pad() for pcm->name ASoC: wcd9335: remove redundant use of ret variable ALSA: firewire-tascam: check intermediate state of clock status and retry ALSA: firewire-tascam: handle error code when getting current source of clock ASoC: hdmi-codec: Add an op to set callback function for plug event ASoC: rt5677: keep analog power register at SND_SOC_BIAS_OFF ASoC: rt5677: Remove magic number register writes ASoC: soc-core: self contained soc_unbind_aux_dev() ASoC: soc-core: add soc_unbind_aux_dev() ASoC: soc-core: self contained soc_bind_aux_dev() ASoC: soc-core: move soc_probe_link_dais() next to soc_remove_link_dais() ASoC: soc-core: self contained soc_probe_link_dais() ASoC: soc-core: add new soc_link_init() ASoC: soc-core: move soc_probe_dai() next to soc_remove_dai() ASoC: soc-core: self contained soc_remove_link_dais() ASoC: soc-core: self contained soc_remove_link_components() ASoC: soc-core: self contained soc_probe_link_components() ASoC: rt1308: make array pd static const, makes object smaller ...

``position_fix=4`` is another combination available for all controllers,
