DPCM can update the FE/BE connection states totally asynchronously
from the FE's PCM state. Most of FE/BE state changes are protected by
mutex, so that they won't race, but there are still some actions that
are uncovered. For example, suppose to switch a BE while a FE's
stream is running. This would call soc_dpcm_runtime_update(), which
sets FE's runtime_update flag, then sets up and starts BEs, and clears
FE's runtime_update flag again.
When a device emits XRUN during this operation, the PCM core triggers
snd_pcm_stop(XRUN). Since the trigger action is an atomic ops, this
isn't blocked by the mutex, thus it kicks off DPCM's trigger action.
It eventually updates and clears FE's runtime_update flag while
soc_dpcm_runtime_update() is running concurrently, and it results in
confusion.
Usually, for avoiding such a race, we take a lock. There is a PCM
stream lock for that purpose. However, as already mentioned, the
trigger action is atomic, and we can't take the lock for the whole
soc_dpcm_runtime_update() or other operations that include the lengthy
jobs like hw_params or prepare.
This patch provides an alternative solution. This adds a way to defer
the conflicting trigger callback to be executed at the end of FE/BE
state changes. For doing it, two things are introduced:
- Each runtime_update state change of FEs is protected via PCM stream
lock.
- The FE's trigger callback checks the runtime_update flag. If it's
not set, the trigger action is executed there. If set, mark the
pending trigger action and returns immediately.
- At the exit of runtime_update state change, it checks whether the
pending trigger is present. If yes, it executes the trigger action
at this point.

soc_dpcm_runtime_update() operates on a ASoC card as a whole. Currently it takes
a snd_soc_dapm_widget as its only parameter though. The widget is then used to
look up the card and is otherwise unused. This patch changes the function to
take a pointer to the card directly. This makes it possible to to call
soc_dpcm_runtime_update() for updates which are not related to one specific
widget.

Some on SoC DSP HW is very tightly coupled with DMA and DAI drivers. It's
necessary to allow some flexability wrt to PCM operations here so that we
can define a bespoke DPCM trigger() PCM operation for such HW.
A bespoke DPCM trigger() allows exact ordering and timing of component
triggering by allowing a component driver to manage the final enable
and disable configurations without adding extra complexity to other
component drivers. e.g. The McPDM DAI and ABE are tightly coupled on
OMAP4 so we have a bespoke trigger to manage the trigger to improve
performance and reduce complexity when triggering new McPDM BEs.

This patch allows DPCM to dynamically alter the FE to BE PCM links
at runtime based on mixer setting updates. DAPM is looked up after
every mixer update and we perform a DPCM runtime update if the
mixer has a change of value.
This patchs adds/changes the following :-
o Adds DPCM runtime update core.
o Changes soc_dapm_mixer_update_power() and soc_dapm_mux_update_power()
to return if a change has occured rather than 0. No other users check
atm.

The Dynamic PCM core allows digital audio data to be dynamically
routed between different ALSA PCMs and DAI links on SoC CPUs with
on chip DSP devices. e.g. audio data could be played on pcm:0,0 and
routed to any (or all) SoC DAI links.
Dynamic PCM introduces the concept of Front End (FE) PCMs and Back
End (BE) PCMs. The FE PCMs are normal ALSA PCM devices except that
they can dynamically route digital audio data to any supported BE
PCM. A BE PCM has no ALSA device, but represents a DAI link and it's
substream and audio HW parameters.
e.g. pcm:0,0 routing digital data to 2 external codecs.
FE pcm:0,0 ----> BE (McBSP.0) ----> CODEC 0
+--> BE (McPDM.0) ----> CODEC 1
e.g. pcm:0,0 and pcm:0,1 routing digital data to 1 external codec.
FE pcm:0,0 ---
+--> BE (McBSP.0) ----> CODEC
FE pcm:0,1 ---
The digital audio routing is controlled by the usual ALSA method
of mixer kcontrols. Dynamic PCM uses a DAPM graph to work out the
routing based upon the mixer settings and configures the BE PCMs
based on routing and the FE HW params.
DPCM is designed so that most ASoC component drivers will need no
modification at all. It's intended that existing CODEC, DAI and
platform drivers can be used in DPCM based audio devices without
any changes. However, there will be some cases where minor changes
are required (e.g. for very tightly coupled HW) and there are
helpers to support this too.
Somethimes the HW params of a FE and BE do not match or are
incompatible, so in these cases the machine driver can reconfigure
any hw_params and make any DSP perform sample rate / format conversion.
This patch adds the core DPCM code and contains :-
o The FE and BE PCM operations.
o FE and BE DAI link support.
o FE and BE PCM creation.
o BE support API.
o BE and FE link management.
