This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ALSA; firewire-tascam: exclude Tascam FE-8 from detection to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: alsa-firewire-tascam-exclude-tascam-fe-8-from-detect.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 9802d252e8e62c3c773d99d728b6bf28ff9f31b3 Author: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Aug 23 16:55:37 2020 +0900 ALSA; firewire-tascam: exclude Tascam FE-8 from detection Tascam FE-8 is known to support communication by asynchronous transaction only. The support can be implemented in userspace application and snd-firewire-ctl-services project has the support. However, ALSA firewire-tascam driver is bound to the model. This commit changes device entries so that the model is excluded. In a commit 53b3ffee7885 ("ALSA: firewire-tascam: change device probing processing"), I addressed to the concern that version field in configuration differs depending on installed firmware. However, as long as I checked, the version number is fixed. It's safe to return version number back to modalias.
