Although thanks for your applying them into your tree, I apologize to trouble you if you overlook that the included changes is just for Linux FireWire subsystem. It's my fault to send them only to Linux sound subsystem, but the changes are required to my work in sound drivers... If you are willing to include patches to Linux FireWire subsystem for your pull-request to Linus, I can prepare respined patches for it since I have the list of patches posted to LKML as bug fixes for Linux FireWire subsystem. I need any help to solve current situation of Linux FireWire subsystem that bug fixes and new changes are hardly merged. Of course, IEEE 1394 bus is already outdated and legacy, but I know that some users still work with it. If your path is available for it, it's the easiest and the most convenient way for upstreaming, I think. Thanks Takashi Sakamoto
