[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ALSA: firewire-lib: continue packet processing at detecting wrong CIP headers

In firewire-lib, isochronous packet streaming is stopped when detecting
wrong value for FMT field of CIP headers. Although this is appropriate
to IEC 61883-1 and 6, some BeBoB based devices with vendors' customization
use invalid value to FMT field of CIP headers in the beginning of
streaming.

$ journalctl
  snd-bebob fw1.0: Detect unexpected protocol: 01000000 8000ffff

I got this log with M-Audio FireWire 1814. In this line, the value of FMT
field is 0x00, while it should be 0x10 in usual AMDTP.

Except for the beginning, these devices continue to transfer packets with
valid value for FMT field, except for the beginning. Therefore, in this
case, firewire-lib should continue to process packets. The former
implementation of firewire-lib performs it.

This commit loosens the handling of wrong value, to continue packet
processing in the case.
