ASoC: Updates for v5.14
This release sees a nice new feature in the core from Morimoto-san,
support for automatic negotiation of DAI formats between the components
on the link. Otherwise the big highlight was the merging of the Tegra
machine drivers into a single driver avoiding a bunch of duplication.
- Support for automatic negotiation of DAI formats.
- Accessory detection support for several Qualcomm parts.
- Support for IEC958 control with hdmi-codec.
- Merging of Tegra machine drivers into a single driver.
- Support for AmLogic SM1 TOACODEC, Intel AlderLake-M, several NXP
i.MX8 variants, NXP TFA1 and TDF9897, Rockchip RK817, Qualcomm
Quinary MI2S, Texas Instruments TAS2505
