Linus Torvalds fb95aae6e6 sound updates for 5.6-rc1
As diffstat shows we've had again a lot of works done for this cycle:
 majority of changes are the continued componentization and code
 refactoring in ASoC, the tree-wide PCM API updates and cleanups
 and SOF updates while a few ASoC driver updates are seen, too.
 
 Here we go, some highlights:
 
 Core:
 - Finally y2038 support landed to ALSA ABI;
   some ioctls have been extended and lots of tricks were applied
 - Applying the new managed PCM buffer API to all drivers;
   the API itself was already merged in 5.5
 - The already deprecated dimension support in ALSA control API is
   dropped completely now
 - Verification of ALSA control elements to catch API misuses
 
 ASoC:
 - Further code refactorings and moving things to the component level
 - Lots of updates and improvements on SOF / Intel drivers;
   now including common HDMI driver and SoundWire support
 - New driver support for Ingenic JZ4770, Mediatek MT6660, Qualcomm
   WCD934x and WSA881x, and Realtek RT700, RT711, RT715, RT1011, RT1015
   and RT1308
 
 HD-audio:
 - Improved ring-buffer communications using waitqueue
 - Drop the superfluous buffer preallocation on x86
 
 Others:
 - Many code cleanups, mostly constifications over the whole tree
 - USB-audio: quirks for MOTU, Corsair Virtuoso, Line6 Helix
 - FireWire: code refactoring for oxfw and dice drivers

README

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.
