Merge series from Cezary Rojewski <cezary.rojewski@intel.com>: A set of changes that aims to improve readability of cohesiveness of the pcm code for the avs-driver. Start off with a change that synchronizes DAI open/close - DAIs are started up in ascending order yet their shutdown does not follow the scheme - it is done in the ascending order too, rather than desceding one. This patch is a dependency for the next one in line. To align the HDAudio DAI startup/shutdown with the non-HDAudio equivalents, relocate the code from component to DAI. The reason above is a dependency stems from codec driver requirements - HDAudio code found in sound/pci/hda/ expects substream->runtime->private_data to point to a valid stream (HOST) pointer. With the hard part done, the follow up changes update the existing code to reduce it is complexity - removal of duplicates, renaming of ambiguous functions and adding new fields to DAI-data object so that the number of local variables and casts is reduced.
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 reStructuredText 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.
