Hi Pierre,
None of this looks Qualcomm-specific, shouldn't this be part of the soc_usb framework instead of being added in the qcom/ stuff?
Started working on this particular comment, and there are some things that needs to be considered if we moved this into SOC USB:
1. We do save the reference to the USB BE DAI link within the USB DT node, which can be fetched/referenced based on sysdev. However, I'm not sure if everyone would potentially follow that way.
2. I tried a few implementations of adding a new SOC USB API, and the argument list was a bit long, because I didn't want to directly reference the usb_chip.
Sorry for the delay, but I wanted to give a good stab at implementing this before bringing up the implications. It is possible, but definitely not as clean as how we have it now IMO.
My comment was only referring to the location of the code, it's now in sound/usb/qcom/mixer_usb_offload.c but does not contain anything specific to Qualcomm. I was not asking for any encapsulation inside of soc-usb, I was only suggesting a move of the code to a shared helper library so that this code can be reused as is and not duplicated if the QCOM parts are not compiled in.
