Takashi Sakamoto fc716397a5 ALSA: fireface: add support for packet streaming on Fireface 800
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.

Takashi Sakamoto a91f676074 ALSA: fireface: add support for Fireface 800 with MIDI functionality only
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.
