With multichannel audio, we need to allow larger buffer sizes to avoid
XRUNs during playback. Push the buffer size up to 1024K, but as we
maintain two buffers, ensure that the vmalloc buffer does not exceed
the userspace buffer size.

Add basic support for multi-channel PCM audio, with fixed speaker
mappings. This has been tested with an AV receiver, and appears to
work for low sample rates up to 8 channels.
It should be noted that multi-channel mode using the IEC958 alsa-lib
conversion plugin requires correct AES channel status for the AV
receiver to recognise the stream, especially the sample rate bits.
"Not identified" does not work there.

Parse the ELD (EDID like data) stored from the HDMI driver to restrict
the sample rates and channels which are available to ALSA. This causes
the ALSA device to reflect the capabilities of the overall audio path,
not just what is supported at the HDMI source interface level.

Add ALSA based HDMI AHB audio driver for dw_hdmi. The only buffer
format supported by the hardware is its own special IEC958 based format,
which is not compatible with any ALSA format. To avoid doing too much
data manipulation within the driver, we support only ALSAs IEC958 LE and
24-bit PCM formats for 2 to 6 channels, which we convert to its hardware
format.
A more desirable solution would be to have this conversion in userspace,
but ALSA does not appear to allow such transformations outside of
libasound itself.
