Hi, this is an experimental patchset to add a new option, quirk_alias, to snd-usb-audio driver. It allows to use the existing quirk for the given vendor:product id pair matching with the new device. Passing like: quirk_alias=1234abcd:5678beef will make the driver applying the quirk for 5678:beef against to the new device 1234:abcd. Obviously, this is for helping to find a workaround for a new device that may need the same / similar quirk for the previous models. Then you can apply the quirk without recompiling the kernel driver with a manual patch.
