This is not very nice. The problem is that you might sleep in a
workqueue and so the other jobs will wait until you are done. I'm think
it is better if you create your own worker here instead using the
system's.
I'm looking into DMA support for this so once your code is working it
should be possible to switch to DMA instead reading byte wise from the
fifo.
How did you test the whole thing? Do you have a test program which
selects a few sources and reads them in continuous mode?
