Takashi Sakamoto 44b7308871 ALSA: firewire-digi00x: add support for asynchronous messaging
Digi 002/003 family uses asynchronous transaction for messaging.
The address to transmit this message is stored on a certain register.

This commit allocates a range of address on OHCI 1394 host controller
to handle the messaging. As long as I know, the purpose of this message
seems to notify lost of synchronization. While, the meaning of content
of the message is not clear.

Actual examples of this messaging:
 * When clock source is set as internal:
 - 0x00007051
 - 0x00007052
 - 0x00007054
 - 0x00007057
 - 0x00007058
 * When clock source is set as somewhat external:
 - 0x00009000
 - 0x00009010
 - 0x00009020
 - 0x00009021
 - 0x00009022

The lost often occurs when using internal clock source. In this case,
users hear sounds with quite short gap every several minutes. In fact,
the lost is recovered temporarily.

When using with external clock source, the lost seems not to occur. The
mechanism is not clear yet.

Takashi Sakamoto 660dd3d52e ALSA: firewire-digi00x: add hwdep interface
This commit adds hwdep interface so as the other sound drivers for units
on IEEE 1394 bus have.

This interface is designed for mixer/control applications. By using this
interface, an application can get information about firewire node, can
lock/unlock kernel streaming and can get notification at starting/stopping
kernel streaming.
